Eddy Arnold – Jim I Wore A Tie Today (Guitar)

  D Bm Em A        D   Bm Em A    D
(Jim      uh huh, Jim       uh huh, Jim)

D                             G   A   D
Jim, I did everything that I could

                              G   A   D
But your fever just wouldn't die down

D
So I tied your horse to the wagon bed

     Em                              A
And last night I brought you to town

D                                  D7
But when I got there you were gone Jim

               G                   Gm
And there was nothin' nobody could do

            D                     A7
I bought you a suit and a tie Jim

                      D    A
And today I wore one too

D      G    A     D
Jim I wore a tie today

       G       A      D    Em    A7
The first one that I ever wore

D               D7      G            Gm
And you'd have said I looked like a dummy

E7                   A7
Out of a dry goods store

D           G    A      D
Jim they said a lot of things

     G       A       D        Em     A7
But I don't know a thing they said

D             D7        G            Gm
My mind kept wanderin' off down the trail

D            A7              D
Back to the times that we've had

Em     A           D
(Wind her through sun and the rain)

Em          A           D
Panning for gold on the cuff

Em          A                D       Bm
We've done everything in the book I guess

       E7                      A
And a lot they'd never thought up

D           G      A         D
Well Jim, you're ridin' on ahead

  G             A      D  Em    A7
I guess that's how it has be

D             D7          G                  Gm
But when you reach those streets paved with gold

 D           A             D
Jim Stake a claim out for me...

  D Bm Em A        D   Bm Em A    D
(Jim      uh huh, Jim       uh huh, Jim)
