MUST YOU THROW DIRT IN MY FACE
Written by Bill Anderson
As Recorded Jim & Jesse McReynolds
[Also recorded by The Louvin Brothers, Waylon Jennings & Roy Clark]

Intro:
[D] You've already put big old [G] tears in my [D] eyes
[...] [A7] Must you throw dirt in my [D] face

[D] What is it that brings you to this part of town
Cur-i-[G]os-i-ty, conscience or [D] fate
I [G] know it's not love for I [D] once gave you love
And [E7] all you gave me was the [A7] gate

I've got a [D] feelin' you've come back to just rub it in
And [G] really put me in my [D] place
[D] You've already put big old [G] tears in my [D] eyes
[...] [A7] Must you throw dirt in my [D] face

[G] Must you keep telling me [D] you've got a new love
[G] I don't need you to re- [D] -mind me
[G] Must you keep
telling me [D] I look so lonesome
And [E7] my better days are be-[A7]-hind me

[D] Must you keep showing me pictures of him
And [G] boasting of his warm em-[D]-brace
[D] You've already put big old [G] tears in my [D] eyes
[...][A7] Must you throw dirt in my [D] face

[Same chord pattern as above]
You've already left me and broken my heart
Told me how much you don't want me
Believe me, I'm happier when we're apart
Must you come back now and haunt me

Must you keep showing me pictures of him
And boasting of his warm embrace
You've already put big old tears in my eyes
Must you throw dirt in my face

TAG:
[D] You've already put big old [G] tears in my [D] eyes
[...] [A7] Must you throw dirt in - my - [D] face

Note. [...] missing or replaced by [NOW] or [WHY] in some versions.
