Notes: Galax Licks and lots of drop thumb work make this for the more advanced player, but I still selected intermediate because I can play it, and I'm no expert. Lots of room here for triplet runs and slides to make it more interesting.

Lyrics:
Short life of trouble
A few more words to part
Short life of trouble, dear girl
For a boy with a broken heart
Remember what you promised
Not more than a week ago
You promised that you'd marry me
Standing in your mama's door
* Refrain
Now you've gone and left me
I don't know what I'll do
I'd give this world and half of my life
Just to be married to you
* Refrain
Now you've broken your promise
Go marry whom you may
In this old world so big and so wide
I'll ramble back some day
* Refrain
My right foot's on the platform
My left foot's on the train
I'm leaving you and this lonesome old town
To never return again

Notes: Been listening to John Hartford's Wild Hog in the Red Brush a ton lately, so I thought I would figure a few out. This is adapted from the fiddle music. Sawmill tuning, Capo 2. Some challenging ASPO's in here, so I set it to expert.
