The Willows - Goodnight Loving Trail
INTRO: C majorC G+G C majorC G+G C majorC
G+G
You're too old to wrangle or ride on the swing
C majorC
You beat the triangle and you curse everything
FF
If dirt were a kingdom, then you'd be the king
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
On the Goodnight Trail, on the Loving Trail
CHORUS:
C majorC G+G
Your old woman's lonesome tonight
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
Your French harp blows like a low-bawling calf
C majorC G+G
It's a wonder the wind don't tear off your skin
C majorC
Get in there and blow out the light
G+G
With your snake oil and herbs and your liniments too
C majorC
You can do anything that a doctor can do
FF
Except find a cure for your own goddamn stew
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
On the Goodnight Trail, on the Loving Trail
CHORUS:
C majorC G+G
Your old woman's lonesome tonight
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
Your French harp blows like a low-bawling calf

Get in there and blow out the light

Well, the campfire's gone out and the coffee's all gone

The boys are all up and they're raising the dawn

And you're sitting there, lost in a song
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
On the Goodnight Trail, on the Loving Trail
CHORUS:
C majorC G+G
Your old woman's lonesome tonight

It's a wonder the wind
A minorAm C majorC FF C majorC
It's a wonder the wind
G+G
Oh, it's someday, I'll be just the same
C majorC
Wearing an apron instead of a name
FF
There's no one can change it, there's no one to blame
C majorC G+G
For the dessert's a book writ in lizards and sage
C majorC
Easy to look like an old torn out page
FF
Faded and cracked with the colours of age
C majorC G+G C majorC FF
On the Goodnight Trail, on the Loving Trail
