[F#]
I followed you [B] to Texas.
[C#] I followed [F#] you to Utah.
We didn't [B] find it there, so [C#] we moved on.
[G#m] [C#]
[F#] I went with you [B] through Alabama.
[C#] Things looked [F#] good in
We didn't [B] find it there, so [C#] we moved on.
I know [F#] you're tired [B] of [C#] following
My elusive [F#] dreams and schemes.
[B] For they're [F#] only fleeting [D#m] things.
[C#] My [F#] elusive dreams.
You had my child [B] in Memphis.
[C#] Then I heard of work [F#] in Nashville.
We didn't [B] find it there, so [C#] we moved on.
To [G#m] [C#] [F#] a small farm [B] in Nebraska.
[C#] To a gold mine [F#] in Alaska.
We didn't find [B] it there, so [C#] we moved on.
[D] [G] And now we've left [C] Alaska.
[D] Because there was [G] no gold mine.
But this time, [C] only two of us [D] moved on.
[G]
[C] And now all we have is each other.
[D] And just a little [G] memory to cling to.
And still, I [C] won't let you go [D] on alone.
I know [G] you're tired [C] of [D] following
My elusive [G] dreams and schemes.
[C] For they're [G] only fleeting things.
[D] My [G] elusive dreams.
[A] [G] [C] For they're [G] only fleeting things.
[D] My [G] elusive dreams.
