When I was a young girl well, I had me a cowboy

He wasn’t much to look at, just free rambling man

But that was such a long time and no matter how I try
D MajorD       G+G       A augmentedA      D MajorD
The years just flow by like a broken down dam.

How the hell can a person go to work in the morning
D MajorD          G+G        A augmentedA     D MajorD
And come home in the evening and have nothing to say.
