(Key of E)
Intro Chords:
D A G D A
D A
Well I'm tired of kicking round, this old town
G D A
There ain't much left to see I haven't already seen
D A
And I've been whirled across the floor a dozen times or more
G D A
I've had my share of aches and made my dumb mistakes
Bm
But now the nights are getting colder as I'm getting older
G
And the days just seem to keep getting shorter
Bm
Something inside's been thinking how nice it?d be
G A
to find someone to hold on to me
D A
So I say my prayers at night
D A
That the Lord will send me one honest guy
D A
A millionaire he don't have to be
G D A
So long as he gives me everything that I need
D G
Send me a cowboy, send me a writer
D A
Send me a fireman, a fighter, a pilot, a preacher man
D G
Send me a doctor, or a hillbilly rocker
D Bm
Lord I don't care what he does
G A D
Just so long as he's good enough to be my man
Well I don't need no diamond rings, no fancey things
Just a steady minded man I can understand
And if it takes a little time, that's just fine
Cause he'll be worth the wait, I've had all I can take
So I'm holding out for that strong-hearted man
With a good conversation and a gentle hand
A God fearing, hard working, country dancing, lovin' making, wild-riding, little darlin' That'd be nice
And I say my prayers at night
That the Lord will send me one honest guy
A millionaire he don't have to be
So long as he gives me every little bitty thing that I need
Chorus:
Oh to be my man
