Chords

[Verse 1]
 D                          G
I'd sing the harmonies and Dixie sang the melody

    F#
And we'd sing a little off key sometimes

    G                 D
But we had some fun, son of a gun

    E                A
I wonder if I ever even cross her mind
[Verse 2]
   D                      G
Then she ran away with Billy Bovine

     F#
He was a flat top guitar picking friend o' mine

     G                          D
And now I'm just sitting' home just counting' the stars

     E                 D
I got close but no guitar
[Chorus]
   D
I got close but no guitar

   F#
She was a shooting star

     B
Who ran off with a guitar picking friend o' mine

    E
She's really on her way

    A
I hear her records every day

   D
I got close but no guitar
[Verse 3]
     D                      G
I still play piano bars, still drive that same ol' car

   F#
I live in that little shack in Tupelo

   G                              D
Dixie is the queen of Billboard Magazine

    E                               A
Playing' 'cross the country doing' one night shows
[Verse 4]
 D                      G
A man walks up with a dollar in his hand

  F#
Says let me hear the song by Dixie and the guitar man

   E                           A
And as the dollar falls to the bottom of my jar

   E                   D
I get close but no guitar
[Chorus]
  D
I got close but no guitar

   F#
She was a shooting star

     B
Who ran off with a guitar picking friend o' mine

    E
She's really on her way

    A
I hear her records every day

   D
I got close but no guitar
