[G]
[C] [G]
[D]
[G] [C] Man you better [G] let go, you [C] can't hold [G] on to what belongs to [D] me and don't belong [G] to you.
[C] I caught [G] you looking [Gm] with your roving [G]
eye, so mister you [D] don't have to act [G] so surprised.
But if it's [C] her you want, I don't care [G] about that, [C]
you [G] can have [D] my girl but don't touch [G] my act.
[C] I'm gonna reel [G] up lonesome [C] on the [G] open range, and that cold north wind can [D] make a [G] man feel strange.
My John B.
[Gm] Stetson [C] was my only [G]
friend, and we've stuck together [D] through many [G] a woman.
So [Am] if it's her [C] you want, I don't care [G] about that, [C] [Gm] you can have my [D] girl but don't touch [G] my act.
My [Bm] mama [C] told me, my son to be [G] polite.
Take your [C] hat off when you walk [D] inside.
But the [C] winds have changed, we've filled [G] the air, [C]
and [G] you can't set your head [D] down just [G] anywhere.
So [C] if you plead [G] not guilty, [A#] I'll be [G] the judge.
We don't need no [D] jury to [G] decide because I wear a seven, [C] and you're out [G] of order.
Cause I can tell [D] from here you're a [G] seven and a quarter.
But if [B] it's her [C] you want, I don't care [G] about that, [C]
[G] you can have my [D]
[G] [E]
[C] [Gm]
[Em] [C] [E]
[G] girl [D] but don't touch [G]
my act.
Lord never [Gm]
complains, it [G] never cries, it looks [Gm]
so [C] good, and [G] it fits just [D] right.
So if [G] it's her you [D] want, [C] I don't care about [G] that, [C] [G] you can have my girl [D] but don't [G] touch
[C]
[D] [G] my
[Am]
[G] [Gm] act.
