Chords

[Intro] C Am7 Dm7 G C Am7 Dm7 G [Verse 1]
       C
Got it bad and you know that ain’t good

C
Doing things I thought I never would

                               Am7              Dm7
Could it be an old cowboy like me has fallen in love

              G
I thought I’d sworn off of settling down

          Dm7             G
But every time she comes around

Dm7                                           G  D  G
   I feel her magic and she’s got me thinking of
[Chorus]
C                  F
  White houses and small picket fences

G                    C
  She’s tearing down all my defenses

   F                   Dm7                   G   G
My senses are gone and I can’t do nothing at all

C                           F
  She’s got me hearing them church bells ringing

G                     C              G
  Wedding marches and people singing

Am                         C                      Dm7
  She’s got me thinking of hanging my guns on the wall

        F                G                    C
And the funniest thought   I don’t mind it at all
[Solo] Am7 Dm7 G C Am7 Dm7 G [Verse 2]
        C
I could run but hey what’s the use

C
Where would I go if she cut me loose

C                             Am7                       Dm7
Just the natural course every wild horse gets broken in time

     G                               Dm7              G
Lord knows I love running free every time she touches me

Dm7                                               G    D
   I can’t believe the things that run through my mind

G
Li-i-i-ike
[Chorus]

My senses are gone and I can’t do nothing at all

C                           F
  She’s got me hearing them church bells ringing

G                     C              G
  Wedding marches and people singing

Am                         C                      Dm7
  She’s got me thinking of hanging my guns on the wall

  She’s got me thinking of hanging my guns (fades out)
