[Gm] [F] [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] [Bbm]
[F] She's a [Bb] good girl, [F] loves her mama, loves [Bb] Jesus, and [F] wears her shoes.
She's a [Bb] good girl, [F] prays for her Elvis, loves her [Bb] horse, and [F] her boyfriend.
[Bb]
[F] It's a [Bb] long day, [F] then I see her at the [Bb] freeway.
She [F] runs to the yard, and I'm a [Bb] bad boy, cause [F] I don't even miss her.
And I'm a [Bb] bad boy for [F] breaking her heart.
And I'm [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] free, [Bb] boy.
[F] [C] [F] Yeah, I'm [Bb] free.
[F] [C] [F] Free, [Bb] boy.
[F] [C] [F] And all the [Bb] valentines [F] walk through the valley, and the blue west [Bb] wind down.
[F] Then cheer her [C] up for the boy, [F] and all the [Bb] bad boys,
they're [F] standing in the shadow, and they're good [Bb]
girls,
and they're [F] home [C] alone in the heart.
[F] And I'm free, [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] boy.
[Bb]
[F] [C] [F] Yeah, I'm [Bb] free.

[F] [C] [F] [Bb] Free, boy.
[F] Free, boy.
[Bb]
[F] [Bb] Free, boy.
[F] [C] Free, boy.
[F] And all the [Bb] valentines walk [F] [Bb] through the [F] valley, and the blue west wind down.
Then cheer her [C] up for the boy, and all the bad boys,
they're standing in the shadow, [F] and they're good [Bb] girls,
[F] [Bb]
[F] [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] [Bb] and they're home [F] [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] [Bbm]
alone in the heart.
[F]
[Bb]
[F] And all the valentines walk through the valley, and the blue west wind down.
[C]
[D] [Fm] Then cheer her up for the boy, [N] and all the bad boys,
they're standing in the shadow, and they're good girls,
and they're home alone in the heart.
So, and you can tell this is the way, if you're figuring out by ear,
you can tell this is what they're doing, [Bb] because you can hear the
[Gm] It's probably out of tune.
[Bb] [C] Throughout [F] the whole thing.
And this one you can also hear staying the same.
So you've got this, at least for these two strings.
[Bb] [G]
Right?
[F] [Bb] [F] [Gm]
So that's how I knew that's how it goes,
because you can hear the high E string covered [G] at that third fret,
when it goes down to there, and you can hear this B string covered here.
So it had to be with a capo, and it has to be this D shape.
So once you have the D shape as the first [F] [Bbm] chord
[F]
[Bbm] [F]
So when I play the G, I'm just playing it without [Abm] the A string covered,
to make it a nice fifth [Bb] chord.
And just [Fm] muting the A string with the fleshy part of my middle finger,
which is kind of what I usually do for most G chords, I guess, [Bb] what I play.
[F] So [Bb]
[F] [C] [F] it kind of gets a little bit repetitive, but a really
