Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][F][C][D][G][C]

[Verse 1]
[Am]There was no
deny[D]ing [Am]the fire in his [G]eyes
It was [Am]more than [G]Pueblo whis[D]key
It was [G]more than a [D]lonely night
[Em]Two hundred mile[Am]s from home
Per[D]fectly alone

[Verse 2]
[Am]There were no apologie[D]s
in his pock[G]et
It was [Am]right there [G]on his [D]hand
A [G]golden wedding band
[Em]Their hear[D]ts began[Am] to pound
Oh, [D]but he stood his ground

[Verse 3]
[G]She lights a c[F]andle for
[C]a cow[D]boy
And wonders why [G]she's so [C]alone
He was a [G]man of his [Dm]word
It was [Am]one she'd never heard
He was the [D]only [G]man[Am] who [G]ever[D] sai[G]d,[C]
"No"
[G][F][C]

[Verse 4]
[Am]She said, "Is there noth[D]ing I can do
to [G]please you?"
[Am]Then he said, "You make
[D]love and sound [G]so easy
And it's [Am]hard to [G]turn [D]away
And even [G]harder [D]to stay
[Em]and eith[D]er way I[Am] go
Oh, it's gonna be a [D]long ride home"

[Verse 5]
[G]She lights a c[F]andle for
a cow[C]boy[D]
And wonders why [G]she's so [C]alone
He was a [G]man of his [Dm]word
It was [Am]one she'd never heard
He was the [D]only [G]man[Am] who [G]ever[D] sai[G]d,[C]
[Am]"No, [G]no, no, [D]no"[G][D]
[Em][Am][D][G][D]

[Verse 6]
[Em]And as he wa[D]lked out t[Am]he door
She loved [D]him all the more

[Verse 7]
[G]She lights a candle for
a cow[C]boy[D]
And wonders why [G]she's still [C]alone
[Am]He was a m[G]an of his wo[Dm]rd
It was [Am]one she'd never heard
He was the [D]only [G]man[Am]
[G]who [D]ever [G]sai[C]d...
He was the [D]only [G]man[Am] who [G]ever s[D]aid,[G]
[C]"No"
[G][F][C]
