Painted Lady Chords by Willis Alan Ramsey

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ All the way to the stars, [D] through the halls of dawn and [F] stars
Dream [C] away on the touch of a [G] new bride
_ _ Star-themed by myself, [D] and bed by the hour of twelve
Gonna [F] have a pretty [C] painted lady by [G] my side
Talking [F] about a pretty [C] painted lady [D] by my [G] side
_ _ _ _ _ I'll tell that woman how it used to be
[D] When the west was wild and the land was free
[F] How the western world [C] traveled for a country [D] bride
[G] _ Then one day when the drug stores came
[D] Forced my hand to play the trucking game
[F] Fish and a bee, [C] cowboy all [G] the while
_ I [F] was fish and a bee, [C] cowboy [G] all the while
[Em] The painted lady tell me of [Am] the past gone by
_ [G] Pull me like a pond [C] range and ride me high
[Em] History to the days when [Am] your dress was [C] made in Calico, [D] you know
_ _ _ _ _ [C] And the man _ [Am] was _ a [F] _
man
_ _ _ The [G] _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [G] painted lady with the painted [D] face
Tell me about your life in the painted [F] place
Tell me where your loving lips and [G] loving eyes
_ _ I can feel the pain, I can see the tears
[D] On the painted cheeks of my tears
[F] Of a loving, [C] old cowgirl [G] in the sky
Talking [F] about a loving, [C] old cowgirl [D] in the sky
_ [Em] The painted lady tell me [Am] of the past gone by
[G] Pull me like a pond [C] range and ride me high
[Em] History to the days [Am] when your dress was made in [D] Calico, you know
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm] And the _
[C] man was [Am] a man
