Townes Van Zandt – Two Girls (Guitar)

          C                       Dm
Well, the clouds didn't look like cotton

            G    F         C
They didn't even look like clouds

      C              Dm
I was underneath the weather

       G              F      C
And my friends looked like a crowd

    C                 Am
The swimmin' hole was full o' rum

  F                 C
I tried to find out why

C                 Dm
All I learned was this my friends

           G      F        C  
You got to swim before you fly

      F   C
I got two girls

         Am            Dm
One's in heaven, one's below

    Am              F      Dm
Oh, one I love with all my heart

    F            C
And one I do not know

    C                    Dm
Two lonesome dudes on an ugly horse

       G      F    C
Passed by not long ago

     C                  Dm
They asked me where the action was

  G      F       C
I said I did not know

        C             Am
As they disappeared into the brush

  F                C
I heard the driver say

C                    Dm  
He's a little slow between the ears

     G      F         C
He's always been that way

      F   C
I got two girls

         Am            Dm
One's in heaven, one's below

    Am              F      Dm
Oh, one I love with all my heart

    F            C
And one I do not know

C               Dm                       
Jolly Jane just lays around

    G       F        C
And listens with her mouth

C                       Dm
She's had about a dozen husbands

        G        F           C
But the last one just pulled out

    C                     Am   
Now who's gonna bring her dinner

            F            C
Through the weary years ahead?

C                         Dm
All she'll get from me is sympathy,

       G       F         C
Got no time to see she's fed

      F   C
I got two girls

         Am            Dm
One's in heaven, one's below

    Am              F      Dm
Oh, one I love with all my heart

    F            C
And one I do not know

    C                Dm
Now cold down on the Bayou,

     G        F       C
They say it's in your mind

C                     Dm
But the moccasins are treadin' ice

    G       F       C
And leavin' strange designs

    C              Am
The Cajuns say the last time

          F                     C
That this happened they werent' here

C                      Dm
Aw, Beaumont's full of penguins

          G       F     C
And I'm a playin' it by ear

      F   C
I got two girls

         Am            Dm
One's in heaven, one's below

    Am              F      Dm
Oh, one I love with all my heart

    F            C
And one I do not know

      F   C
I got two girls

         Am            Dm
One's in heaven, one's below

    Am              F      Dm
Oh, one I love with all my heart

    F            C
And one I do not know
