[Intro 1]
[D][G][A][D][G][D][A][G]

[Verse 1]
[D]Took
my last [G]fall in San [A]Diego[G]
[D]Bus headed nor[G]th one hea[C]ded south[A]
[G]I call a f[A]arm in Colorado
[D]And[Bm] I lift a d[E]usty
pay phone to my [A]mouth

[Verse 2]
[D]She says hel[G]lo I say it's me [A]hon[G]
[D]Sorry I s[G]tayed away so lon[C]g[A]
Tell the [G]kids their old man's [A]through
with playin' [D]rodeo
Cause if [E]it's alright with you I'm
comin' [A]home

[Verse 3]
Well there's si[D]lence on the line
She says you sure did take your time
But I still need a man for
the things a man is good [A]for
[Am]You know how it is raisin'
[C]crops and raisin' kids
De[G]mands a man at [A]least as fit as [D]you are
So come on git on home there's
hay that needs a mowin'
A boy that needs a whippin'
and a hundred things [A]to do
I hope you've [Am]fi nally
found your mind
To leave that [C]rodeo behind
I've spent [G]half my life just
[A]waitin' here for you

[Verse 4]
[D]I g[G]ues[D]s that nows the tim[G]e
[A]I'd better tell [G]her[D]
Hon I've got this old friend
that's here with [C]me[A]
[G]He used to be a cowboy[A]
and a good [D]one so they [Bm]say
[E]But now his legs are crippled
[A]he can't walk you see
But [D]hon you ought to hear
[G]him tell his [A]stories[G]
[D]Sing the old song[G]s play the guitar t[C]oo[A]
I'd [G]really like [A]to show him
color[D]ado
[E]But I thought I'd better leave it up [A]to you
Well there's si[D]lence on the line

[Verse 5]
And now I hear her sayin'
Babe I only need a man for
the things a man is good [A]for
And [Am]you know how it is a
[C]place just half this big
De[G]mands a man at [A]least
as fit as [D]you are
Put yourself in his place
it'd awful hard to face
All the chores and work and
nothing he [A]could do
If you [Am]want to know my mind leave
[C]that rodeo bum behind
Don't [G]waste our time I'm
[A]waitin' here for you

[Verse 6]
[D]Well [A]cry[D]in's just for ki[G]ds
I put [A]down [G]the phone
[D]Fumble with my [G]crutches movin' slo[C]w[A]
[G]I wish that I was o[A]n the bus that's
[D]Colorado bou[Bm]nd
[E]And I hope the weather's [A]nice [D]in Mexico
