I Followed Her Into The West chords by Tom Paxton

Guitar chords with lyrics

C                F      C
I followed her into the west
                         G
Where I had never been before.
C                        F
And never did she see me as
C                      G       C
I stood there helpless by the door.

C                 F     C
Each day my resolution rose,
                         G
And every day an oath I swore:
C                          F
Tonight I'd stand and be a man;
C                  G        C
Tonight I'd knock upon her door.

C                             F          C
And shaved and pressed and cleaned and dressed,
                              G
I'd start upon the quest once more.
C                            F
But each night ended as the rest:
C                  G        C
I could not knock upon her door.

C                    F      C
I paced my room and cursed myself;
                            G
I swore that I would go no more.
C                            F
When, as the sun was sinking low,
C                  G      C
I heard a knocking at my door.

C                                F
And standing there with food for me;
                            G
Standing there, my heart's delight!
C                                F
Who said, "I thought you must be ill.
C                   G     C
I missed you at my door tonight.

C                                F
"Now you must rest and you must sleep,
                      G
Your resolution to restore.
C                           F
And when these dishes you return,
C                 G       C
Be sure to knock upon my door."

C                F      C
I followed her into the west
                         G
Where I had never been before.
C                        F
And never did she see me as
C                      G       C
I stood there helpless by the door.
