Capo: 3

The John Butler Trio Kimberley Listen to the song to get the strumming pattern - mostly the top strings first and then strumming of the bottom strings. Good Luck! Capo: 3rd fret

Harmonica Bridge: (D-D-Bm-G) x4

T^Dell you a story, about a ^Bmgirl named K^Gimberly W^Dho all the cowboys wanted cause ^Bmshe was wild an^Gd free B^Dut now theres fussing and theres fighting ^BmWe all taki^Gng sides W^Dhile the cowboys are playing their old games of ^Bmconquer and ^Gdivide. You see

^DKimberly was special, a r^Bmare and wi^Gld soul Nearly ^Devery man who met her, their h^Bmearts she alwa^Gys stole But there are ^Dalways those exceptions of the ^Bmcold and callo^Gus kind That ^Dwanted just her body and ^Bmleave the mess for u^Gs behind

Now the ^Dprince of the cowboys, his ^Bmname was ^GBarnett He ^Dwanted to leave his mark, you know, so ^Bmwe did not^G forget So he said "^DMine mine mine, ^Bmall f^Gor me" It's ^Dgreat to be a cowboy in the ^Bmwild west roami^Gng free

(Heavier Strum - then pick it up)

So he ^Dbrandished all his bullets he put a ^Bmgun right to o^Gur head H^Ge said "I'm g^Diving you all a choice now, you're either^Bm with me or your ^Gdead You know I ^Dgot to have this kim, I cant ^Bmget her off ^Gmy mind And ^DI ain't gonna stop until she'^Bms m^Gine, mine"

(Single strum)

^EmWhere do i st^Gand? Got this ^Bmhole in my heart and^A a line drawn in the ^Emsand. It's all g^Gray. There are^Bm no black and whites ^Aso who am I ^Gto say

(Standard Strum)

^DI am what I am and ^BmI am strong Cause I ^Ggot my land and I got my song ^DI am what I am and ^BmI am belong Cause I ^Ggot my land and I got my song

Now its ^Dcome to a showdown and its ^Bmall push a^Gnd pull Got these^D lawyers having field day while the ^Bmcowboys are fundi^Gng schools I guess i^Dt boils down to how you see it, ^Bmdo you see Ki^Gmberly, Or just ^Danother god damn hole in the ground just ^Bmanother oppo^Grtunity?

^EmWhere do i st^Gand? Got this ^Bmhole in my heart and^A a line drawn in the s^Emand. It's all g^Gray. There are^Bm no black and whites ^Aso who am I ^Emto say

You are ^Gwrong but you ^Bmnever know what y^Aou got until i^Emts gone And one ^Gday the li^Bmttle people will ask what y^Aou did and what ^Gwe said

^DI am what I am and ^BmI am strong Cause I ^Ggot my land and I got my song ^DI am what I am and ^BmI am belong Cause I ^Ggot my land and I got my song ^DI am what I am and ^BmI am strong Cause I ^Ggot my land and I got my song ^DI am what I am and ^BmI am belong Cause I ^Ggot my land and I got my song
