Lonesome Town Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]I've[G] bee[Am]n stuck here
in lonesome [C]Texas
Nothin' to [F]my name but a locket
[G]chain and a cotton [Am]dress
But I'm leavin' on a
train [C]to Nashville
And the lonesome [F]desperado
[G]who left me in this [Am]mess

[Verse 2]
Oh, the [F]west is getting way [G]too [Am]wild
For this [F]Appalachian Mountain child
[G]

[Verse 3]
[C]
No more [F]rodeo [G]riders
They [C]just saddle up and [F]ride out of [G]town
[C]His heart is jus[F]t like the des[G]ert
Not a [Dm]drop of love to [F]be found
in lone[Am]some town

[Verse 4]
[Am][G]
[Am]There ain't no place for
a wildwood [C]flower
In the state where the [F]yellow
rose is the [G]object of desire
[Am]So I sit here and count the hour[C]s
'Til I get to the [F]place that takes [G]my soul
just a little [Am]bit higher

[Verse 5]
[F]That cowboy got the best [G]of [Am]me
This girl is [F]headed back to Tennessee

[Verse 6]
[G]Oh oh,[C] no more rod[F]eo rid[G]ers
They just [C]saddle up and [F]ride out of [G]town
[C]His heart is jus[F]t like the des[G]ert
Not a [Dm]drop of love to be [F]found in
lonesome [Am]town

[Interlude 1]
[Am][G][F][Am][F][G]

[Verse 7]
[C]Oh oh, no more [F]rodeo [G]riders
They just [C]saddle up and [F]ride out of [G]town
[C]His heart is jus[F]t like the des[G]ert
Not a [Dm]drop of love to [F]be found
[Am]in lonesome town

[Verse 8]
[C]
No more [F]rodeo [G]riders
They [C]just saddle up and [F]ride out of [G]town
[C]His heart is jus[F]t like the des[G]ert
Not a [Dm]drop of love to be [F]found
[Am]in lonesome town

[Verse 9]
[Am]Ooh, such a lonesome town
No more rodeo riders
No more rodeo riders
It's a lonesome town
No more rodeo riders riders
His heart is just like the desert
It's a lonesome [Am]town, oh
