Verse:


D                              Em
As the Psychedelic cowboy left impressions,

     A                           D
On a half empty bar room he just played

D                                      Em
And the hippie girl from Austin waited patiently

       A                               D
in the alley to fulfill the plans they made

D                                       Em
So they drove the Studebaker toward the sunrise

    A                             D
and pulled into the cactus tree motel

D                                     Em
The sky glowed like mesculine around them

    A                                D
 as they promised love no love song could fulfill


Chorus:


D           G               A
If you ever leave I’m going with you

D               G             A
Words whispered softly in the night

D                           G
We may have been high, when we wrote it the sky

     Em                    A              D
But I’ll keep that promise with me till I die


Verse:


D                               Em
A wild painted pony crossed the highway

   A                             D
An omen that we both thought was good

D                         Em
Like a morning lullaby or eagle as she flies

A                              D
signs we could have not misunderstood


Chorus:


D           G               A
If you ever leave I’m going with you

D               G             A
Words whispered softly in the night

D                           G
We may have been high, when we wrote it the sky

     Em                    A              D
But I’ll keep that promise with me till I die

Verse:


D                                      Em
Now the years twist us like two Broken arrows

    A                                D
But our symphony still plays a sweet refrain

D                                    Em
Just lofty love and laughter we gave into

    A                                  D
Two old weathered hearts that dared to dream


Chorus:


D           G               A
If you ever leave I’m going with you

D               G             A
Words whispered softly in the night

D                           G
We may have been high, when we wrote it the sky

     Em                    A              D
But I’ll keep that promise with me till I die

    Em                    A              D
Oh I’ll keep that promise with me till I die
