The Cowboy And The Lady

	  		Capo II 


D        G        Em      F#m  Em  D 

       D                          
In the airport lounge she sat 
    G 
In a fancy feathered hat 
   Em             G          D 
The grandest lady I had ever seen 
   D  
Outside the heavy rains 
    G                  
Had grounded all the planes 
     Em                                D 
So I asked her if she'd like some company 

      D                      
In my rhinestone studded suit 
   G            
My cowboy hat and boots 
  Em               G                D 
I must have been a sight for her to see 
        D 
But she said, "Pull up a chair" 
       G 
As she fumbled with her hair 
  Em                              D 
A more unlikely pair you'll never see 

      D 
I was Mogen Davis wine 
        G 
She was Chablis '59 
    Em                G              D 
But there we sat, the cowboy and the lady 
        D         
She was evenings at the Opera 
    G 
And summers in Paris 
      Em                                D 
I was Grand Ole Op'ry, Nashville, Tennessee 

    Bm             A 
The cowboy and the lady 
   G                  F#m 
As different as could be 
       Bm        A     
But it seemed so right 
     G          Em        A(pause) 
That rainy night in Tennessee 

    D     
And somewhere in between 
    G 
Her Harvey's Bristol Cream 
        Em                   G         D 
And the beer I drank and the easy company 
   D 
We somehow came together 
      G 
For a night of stormy weather 
              Em                              D 
Now there's a little bit of class in this old cowboy 
          G             F#m   Em      D 
There's a little bit of cowboy in the lady 

Solo: D        G        Em    F#m  Em  D  
        
    Bm             A 
The cowboy and the lady 
   G                  F#m 
As different as could be 
       Bm        A 
But it seemed so right 
     G          Em        A(pause)
That rainy night in Tennessee 

Interlude: D         G        Em    G    D  

   D        
We somehow came together 
      G 
For a night of stormy weather 
              Em                              D 
Now there's a little bit of class in this old cowboy 
          G             F#m(pause) 
There's a little bit of cowboy in the lady 

Repeat and Fade: D        G        Em    G    D
