From Cotton To Satin
Gene Watson

Intro:
F Bb C

Chorus:
       F                          Bb
From cotton to satin, from Birmingham to Manhattan
           F                  C
From a pickup to a long limousine
       F                          Bb
From cotton to satin, from Birmingham to Manhattan
     F        C         F
She had to follow her dream
    F                     Bb                 F
I saved up enough, to buy her, one small diamond
                                         C
That's the year that old tractor, broke down
          F                               Bb
And the dream house I promised her still lies by a shade tree
           F          C          F
Some old bricks and boards all around

F                              Bb           F
She begged me to take her, to see New York City
                                     C
So I mortgaged the farm and we were gone
     F                           Bb         F
But while we were there she took up with a rich man
                     C        F    (Walk up & Change Keys C D)
I came back, to the country alone

      F                             B             F
Now there is the garden, where she touched every flower
                                           C
There's the meadow where we walked hand in hand
    F                       B                    F
If only she'd waited, she'd have more than she dreamed of
                      C         F   (Walk up & Change Keys D E)
For today they struck oil on my land

Chorus:
       G                          C
From cotton to satin, from Birmingham to Manhattan
        G                     D
From a pickup to a long limousine
       G                          C
From cotton to satin, from Birmingham to Manhattan
     G       D         G
She had to follow her dream

Outro:
                Gm
She went from cotton to satin
