Lyle Lovett - Give back my heart

^DI'm a traveling man don't tie me down There's just ^Gtoo much living going all around A ^E7man has got to see what he can ^A7see I ^Dlove the road and I love the air And I d^Gon't worry, hell, I never care I l^E7ove my women, sometimes they love ^A7me

But I was^D got one day, I still don't know how I d^Gidn't even like that town This f^E7ellow said "Stranger why don't you just go on ^A7home?" And I said ^D"Man that's where I'm headed to And you ^Gcouldn't stop me if you knew what to do." And I l^E7eft and I planned to go a^A7lone

But the ^Droad was long and home was far So I s^Gtopped off at this little cowboy-looking bar I ^E7walked on through the door and she just s^A7miled In a ^Dlong pony tail and a pretty white dress She said "^GHi, bull riders do it best." I said "^E7Oh my God, what's your name? My name's L^A7yle."

And I said ^Dooh give back my ^Gheart chipkicker-redneck woman ^E7Take your boots and walk out of my ^A7life ^DOoh give back my heart ^Gchipkicker-redneck woman ^E7I can't be no c^A7owgirl ^Dparadise

I ^Dlooked at her and she looked at me And I ^Glooked back and she looked back And ^E7we went out together for a w^A7alk Her ^Deyes were bright just like the stars But she ^Gdrove a pickup said she hated cars But ^E7loved to ride around out after d^A7ark

And I said ^Dooh give back my ^Gheart chipkicker-redneck woman ^E7Take your boots and walk out of my ^A7life ^DOoh give back my heart ^Gchipkicker-redneck woman ^E7I can't be no c^A7owgirl ^Dparadise

I told her ^Gredneckness has got to be a dis^Dease You ^E7catch it on your fingers and it just c^A7rawls right up your sleeves ^DOoh give back my heart ^Gchipkicker-redneck woman ^E7I can't be no c^A7owgirl ^Dparadise

Well ^Dhow she did it I'll never know But it's ^Gbeen maybe 20 years or so And she ^E7cooks the supper and I try to pay the r^A7ent But I'm a t^Draveling man don't tie me down There's just ^Gtoo much living go all around But ^E7I can't figure out quite where it w^A7ent

And I said ^Dooh give back my ^Gheart chipkicker-redneck woman ^E7Take your boots and walk out of my ^A7life ^DOoh give back my heart ^Gchipkicker-redneck woman ^E7I can't be no c^A7owgirl ^Dparadise
