Intro: F-Bb-C
Chorus:
[F] [Bb]
[F] [C]
[F] [Bb]
She h[F]ad to fol[C]low her dr[F]eam
I sa[F]ved up enough, to buy [Bb]her, one small diam[F]ond
That's the year that old tractor, broke d[C]own
And the dr[F]eam house I promised her still l[Bb]ies by a shade tree
Some old br[F]icks and bo[C]ards all ar[F]ound
[F]She begged me to take her, to s[Bb]ee New York C[F]ity
So I mortgaged the farm and we were g[C]one
But w[F]hile we were there she took [Bb]up with a r[F]ich man
C F (Walk up & Change Keys C-D)
I came back, to the country alone
Now th[F]ere is the garden, where she t[B]ouched every f[F]lower
There's the meadow where we walked hand in [C]hand
If o[F]nly she'd waited, she'd [B]have more than she dr[F]eamed of
C F (Walk up & Change Keys D-E)
For today they struck oil on my land
Repeat Chorus:
[G] [C]
[G] [D]
[G] [C]
She h[G]ad to fo[D]llow her d[G]ream
Tagg:
She went from co[Gm]tton to satin
