Hey, why don't we sing a couple songs together?
[G] [A]
[D] This old highway seems so lonesome when [Gbm] you're going where you've been
[G] And a lonesome song can make you cry [A] time and time again
I [D] had listened to a friend of mine [Bm] ten years ago today
I'd [G] have a better job than what I got [A] today
But [D] the billboards on the highways [Gbm] and the brake lights on the cars
[G] Make me jump out on the highway [A] with my bag and my guitar
If [D] she comes or if she goes it [Bm] doesn't matter anymore
Cause [G] I'm riding [A] my thumb to [D] Mexico
[G] Riding [A] my thumb to [D] Mexico
[Bm] [G] It don't [A] matter when or [D] how I go
[G] I'll ride this thumb [D] till I see her again
[G] So I'm [A] riding my thumb [D] to Mexico
[E] [G] [E]
[D]
You're still a stall that won't grow old
You're still a burst failed [A] to see
You're still the end of life's story
This pledge to you dear I [D] bring
[E]
[D] Yours in the grey of December
Here [B]
or on far [Em] distant shores
[G] I never loved [D] anyone the way I [B]
love you
[Em] How could I?
[Gm]
I was born to [A] be [D] just you
[Bb] [E]
She's got [A] a [E] hillbilly heart
[B] Basically simple, naturally smart
[E] She's got a grandmama's eyes
[Gb] Beautiful feature, [A] the old [B]-fashioned kind
[Dbm] She's filled with the memory [E] of close family [Dbm] ties
Grandma babies [E] that grew up and died
[Dbm] She's honest and she's open [E] and she's [A] country inside
[E] She's [A] got a [E] hillbilly heart
[N]
[D]
I came to town this Saturday
I brought with me [A] a memory
And [Em] I seem to hear [Gbm] the nightlings cry
[G] Go hang your [D] dreams on the hanging tree
The dreams of love that could never be
[A] Hang your faded dreams [D] on the hanging tree
[F]
Desperado, by the night
[Bb] [Bbm] [F] You've been out riding [Dm] fences [Gm] for so long now

These things [F] that are pleasing you
[G] Hurt you [F] somehow
[C] [Dm] Don't you draw the [Am] queen a diamond floor

Oh, [Dm] the [Bb] queen of hearts is always [F] your best [C] friend
Now [Dm] it seems to [Am] me some fine things

But [Gm] you only [G] want the ones
That you [C] can't get
[F] Desperado, why don't [Bb] you come through your senses
[F] Come down from your [Dm] fences
It's a [G] warm day
[C] It [F] may be raining
But there's a [Bb] rainbow up [Bbm] above you
[F] You better let somebody [Dm] love you
You better [Bb] let somebody [G] love you
Oh, you [F] better let somebody [Dm] love you
[Gm] Before it's [F] too late
