Chords with lyrics
🎸 Verse 1:
BB
Her daddy played lead, he's an old weekender
B7B7 BB BB
Workin' that small-town sunburst Fender scene
F# minorF#m
They say one day she up and left the farm
F#F# BB
With that Strat and her hat and her worn-out Carhartts on
F# minorF#m BB BB
With one last look at the barrel horse in the barn
🎸 Chorus:
BB Gadd9Gadd9 BB
Well, who's that girl with the Stratocaster
Gadd9Gadd9 BB BB
Has anybody ever thought to ask her name
BB Gadd9Gadd9 BB
She's playin’ with some boys across the border
Gadd9Gadd9 BB F#F#
With a western heart and a lonesome northern twang
🎸 Verse 2:
BB
I seen her one time in Oklahoma
B7B7 BB BB
Looking all alone, 'bout as far from home as could be
F# minorF#m
I thought for a second 'bout tryin’ to approach her
F#F# BB
But she's looking for the one that'll help to rope her dreams
F# minorF#m BB BB
And it turns out that it's tougher than it seems
🎸 Chorus:
BB Gadd9Gadd9 BB
Well, who's that girl with the Stratocaster
Gadd9Gadd9 BB BB
Has anybody ever thought to ask her name

She's playin’ with some boys across the border
Gadd9Gadd9 BB F#F#
With a western heart and a lonesome northern twang

BB
She stands at the back and she keeps on strummin’
BB
Believes in the rhythm and a better day comin’ soon

She ain’t been home in a dozen seasons

She's runnin’ out of time for findin’ reasons to

And she's runnin’ out of rhymes to put the music to
