Sweetheart Of The Rodeo

	  		
B                   E             B 
I hear the sound of sorrow in the wind 
        E                              B 
Blowing down from every mile I've ever been 
        E                                   B 
Calling me out on some road that just won't end 
                                     F# 
Where the sweetheart rides the rodeo again 
           B                 E                B 
A thousand nights a thousand towns I took the bows 
                                 F# 
There is no compensation for me now 
     B                E                  B 
Out along the highway where the west was won 
                     F#            B 
No matter how fast I ride or far I run 
        E                         B 
Waiting for the sweetheart of the rodeo 
                                       E 
They're comin' down from Tonopah to Tupelo 
                                F# B 
She'll come to town to ride the radio 
                                     F# 
Like she's slidin' down the walls of Jericho 
                                    B 
There goes the sweetheart of the rodeo 

B                  E              B 
I stepped into the light you left behind 
        E                                      B 
I stood there where all the world could see me shine 
         E                            B 
Oh I was on my way to you to make you mine 
                       F#                B 
But I took the longest road that I could find 
        E                         B 
Waiting for the sweetheart of the rodeo 
                                       E 
They're comin' down from Tonopah to Tupelo 
                                F# B 
She'll come to town to ride the radio 
                                     F# 
Like she's slidin' down the walls of Jericho 
                                    B 
There goes the sweetheart of the rodeo
