[E]
So the shepherd boy says to [A] his lady [E] in waiting, [C#m] give me your heart, [A] but give me some [C#m] time.
[E] I'm not without hope and [A] I'm not [E] hesitating,
[C#m] myself and [F#m] my treasure to [E] find.
And [A] I'll make my way back by the light of your heart, [C#m] in the darkest of night your [A] flame [E] I will see.
And [A] we'll dance in the moon and we'll raise us some babies, forever our souls [B] will be [G#m]
together.

[A] [E]
So he sells off his flock [A] for a pick [Bm] and a shovel [C#] and a fine leather [A] bag to hold [C#] all that [C#m] gold.
And he [E] takes her soft hands [Am] one last time, [E] how he loves her [C#] with the winds of [A] change [E] blowing cold.
Well [A] goodbye Tennessee, [D] here I come [A] Colorado, [C#m] I'll piss in your streets [A] and sleep in [E] your hills.
[A] And I'll fill up my bag with [D] your turquoise [C#m] and silver Suzanne, [A] I [B] always [G#m] will love [E]
you.

That night she lay [D] still with the [E] cold winds a-blowing [A] and the sounds of the willow crawling through [C#m] the trees.
Hey that [E] man with a soul the size of a pickle, well he's a lift [A] you to do [E] as you please.
So she [A] moves into town and [D] enrolls into [A]
college and [C#m] gets her a job with a [A] teaching [E] degree.
Say to [A] hell with you fool, you [D] dreamer [A] James Butler [C#m] by God, [A] I'm gonna [B] be happy.

[E] Of course he comes back with [A] holes in his [E] pockets, [C#m] but ready to claim what he thought was [A] still his.
[C#m]
She had [E] a new house and a town and a doctor for a husband and [C#m] a nursery [A] school full of [E] kids.
So [A] he finds him a rope strong enough for hanging [C#m] with his heart full of sorrow.
[A] He finds [E] him a dream, but [A] he can't take his life so he takes out his pen knife and [C#m] carves.
[A] I'll [B] always be
[G#m] [E] a dreamer.
