Intro + Main Fill (Twice)

Well I'm [G6sus]sittin' down in San Anton'

Waiting on an [Dmaj7]eight o'clock train

My [G6sus]woman left me here last night

Things ain't been [Dmaj7]quite the same

I gotta[G6sus] get back to Dallas

And tie up a[Dmaj7] few loose ends

I'm gonna [G6sus]work a week make a hundred dollars

Aw and hit the [Dmaj7]road again

So I don't w[G]ant you to think

That you're the first one

To leave me[Dmaj7] out here on my own

Cause this [G]ain't gonna be the [F#m]first time

This [Em]ol' cowb[A]oy spent the [Dmaj7]night alone[G6sus][+][Main]


Now [G6sus]honey I've been a fool but a bigger fool

I can't remember [Dmaj7]when I've been

Just to[G6sus] open up my heart

And let you[Dmaj7] walk right in

Now t[G6sus]here's one thing in this life

Ain't [Dmaj7]hard for me to do

That's as[G6sus] soon as I kiss the lips of another woman

I'm gonna [Dmaj7]forget all about you

So I don't w[G]ant you to think

That you're the first one

To leave me[Dmaj7] out here on my own

No this [G]ain't gonna be the [F#m]first time

This [Em]ol' cowb[A]oy spent the [Dmaj7]night alone[G6sus][+][Main]

Solo: Verse chords + Main Riff (Twice)


If you [G6sus]wrote all the woman's names down I know

And let me [Dmaj7]pick one out

I don't [G6sus]think there'd be one in the whole bunch

Aw I'd give a[Dmaj7] hoot about

So I don't w[G]ant you to think

That you're the first one

To leave this o[Dmaj7]l' boy out here on his own

Cause this [G]ain't gonna be the [F#m]first time

This [Em]ol' cowb[A]oy spent the [Dmaj7]night alone

No this [G]ain't gonna be the [F#m]first time

This [Em]ol' cowb[A]oy spent the [Dmaj7]night alone[G6sus][+][Main]

End: G F#m Em A (Dmaj7)
