Cappo 5

E
You took the train to Colorado

I footed the bill

There’s only two places in this world 

Now you in Heaven and I’m in Hell
    a
I though that I’d never be alone
                               E
‘Till you left me high and dry
D                              	  	  	  	  	 a
Now I wanted to write you a country love song,  but that was before you said good bye
D 	  	  	  	  	  	 a 	  	  	  	 e
I gave you my heart and my credit card, but you screwed me over I hope you die
E
Good bye in lipstick on the mirror, 

I guess that was all you had to say

You left a tore up picture with your dear John letter,
                                            A
Could you be any more cliché

I thought that I could leave you alone,

 But you left me high and dry

D                              	  	  	  	  	 a                                             E
Now I wanted to sing you a country love song, but that was long before you said good bye
D 	  	  	  	  	  	 A 	  	  	  	  E
So when your on that train from Colorado I hope it derails and I hope you die.

BRIDGE:
A
Now they say it is better to love and lost then to never loved at all
 	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	  	 E
Take it from me that load of s**t; you can have it all I still hope you die.

You took the train from Colorado, 

 I couldn’t care less

There are lots of places in this world 

Where you go I don’t give a damn

You though I could leave you alone,  

But you left me High and Dry

D                              	  	  	  	  	 a                                             E
Now I wanted to sing you a country love song, but that was long before you said good bye

D                                                                     A                                                  E
You stole my heart and my credit card,   there both overdrawn I hope you die.

So when your on that train from Colorado, I hope it derails, I hope you die.

I hope you die, 

I hope you Die.

           E                       C#m
There is a woman, she lives in the west
              E                             C#m
She's not the devil, but she wears his best dress
                   E                              C#m
She's quicker than lightning with the iron on her hips
                   E                                C#m
She's quicker than lightning and they say she don't miss

Chorus:
  A                       Am
I can't say I love you, I don't hardly know you
     E                            B
They warned me about you from the start
     B                                                          E
They said "Don't you cross her if you don't want a hole in your heart"

The dress hides a pistol, a top-break Schofield I think
Not that it matters when you're outdrawn in a blink
She builds her own cartridge, it's a wildcatted load
With a wadcutting bullet for a blood letting wound

Chorus

Solo

Chorus

There is a woman, she lives in the west
She's not the devil, but she wears his best dress

Intro  C D G Em C D G D

    C                              G
The love you thought was dead and gone
      C                  D
Somehow keeps on hanging on
     C                        G           D
Even when your heart has left it far behind
     C                    G
Just when you have turned the page
   C               D
It seems to find a way
     Em
There it is again
      D       G
Every now and then

(Chorus)
    C                  D        G                 Em
And every now and then that old feeling comes around
      C                 D          G              Em
Every now and then I see your face in another cloud
    C                      D              G         Em         C
And every now and then some old something takes me, right back again
C     D       G
Every now and then

   C                         G
You can finally breathe life in
       C                      D
Without wondering where she's been
      C               G                 D
Go to sleep at night without her on your mind
      C              G
In a second it appears
       C              D
Followed by familiar tears
    Em              D
Like a long lost friend
     D        G
Every now and then

Chorus

(Instrumental) Chorus

Em         C            D
And I know it's all for nothing
Em         C             D
There's no going back to way back then

Chorus
Em    C       D
I still love you

Every now and then

Intro.:  | (D)  | (A)  | (D)  | (A)

Well, I (D)heard he needed some (G)help on the farm,
some-(A)body with a truck and (D)two strong arms
Not scared of dirt and (A)willin' to work,
till the (G)sun (F#m)goes (Em)down
So (D)I pulled up and said, "(G)I'm your man,
I could (A)start right now" and (D)we shook hands
He said, "The (D)fence needs fixin', the (A)peaches need pickin',
and the (G)cows need bringin' (D)'round"

(Chorus)
I was (D)haulin' hay, I was feedin' the hogs
And that (A)summer sun had me sweatin' like a dog
So I (Em)cooled off in the creek
Then it was (G)back to work in the (A)daggum heat
I was (D)cussin' out loud, thinkin' 'bout quitin'
(A)Lookin' back now I'm sure glad I didn't
'Cause (Em)just when I thought it couldn't (F#m)get no hotter
(G)I caught glimpse of the (A)farmer's daughter

Inst.:  | (D)  | (A)

She was (D)just gettin' home from (G)Panama city
She was (A)all tanned up and (D)my kinda pretty
When her eyes met mine, I was (A)thinkin'
that I would sure (G)love (F#m)my (Em)job
As the (D)days got shorter our (G)talks got longer
The (A)kisses got sweeter and the (D)feelin's got stronger
So we'd hop in the truck and get (A)all tagled up
every (G)chance (F#m)we (D)got

(Chorus 2)
Oh, we were (D)down by the river all night long
When the (A)sun came up I was sneakin' her home
And (Em)draggin' my butt to work
with the (G)smell of her perfume (A)on my shirt
I'd be (D)on the tractor she'd be on my mind
with that (A)sun beatin' down on this back of mine
(Em)Just when I thought it couldn't (F#m)get no hotter
(G)I fell in love with the (A)farmer's daughter

(Bridge)
(Em) We got married last (A)spring
Woah(Em) and there ain't no better life for (A)me

(Chorus)
I'm still (D)haulin' hay and feedin' the hogs
And that (A)summer sun has me sweatin' like a dog
So I (Em)cool off in the creek
And she (G)brings me outta glass of (A)sweet ice tea
I'm (D)on my tractor and she's on my mind
And (A)I can't wait till its quitin' time
And (Em)just when i think it can't (F#m)get no hotter
(G)I come home to the (A)farmer's daughter

It makes my heart glad it's shining down on me.

C
Here it is
The last day of my life and I'm jumping in.
Here it is
One step into space and I'm falling in.
                   Am
And I ain't gotta parachute,
I ain't gotta parachute
      C
Like you,
It was you.

C
You and me,
We have our own world where I wanna be,
Oh when I'm hurting you
Then that world's hell and it's killing me
                    Am
I'm living with an open wound,
Hoping that it closes soon.
                C
I don't wanna leave,
But I should leave.
