[Verse 1]
[Am]I
had a taste of bitter [Bdim]life
[Esus4]At sweet [E]six[F#dim]teen[Am]
I was growing up too [C]fast
If [F]you know what I [Esus4]mean[E][Am]
Met an older man
[Bdim]Who taught me his [E]own way to [Am]live[E]
[Am]And all I had to do to keep him[C]
Was to [F]give and [Esus4]give[E]

[Verse 3]
[Am]I followed him around in

Along [E]the main [Esus4]county
[E]lin[F#dim]es[Am]
Watching him drinking his mind away
Not ever know[F]ing my name
at [Esus4]time[E][Am]
Each night when [Bdim]the show closed down
He used [E]to tell me of his
[F#m]dreams[E][Am]
He was wearing new French suits
While I men[F]ded my torn
jeans

The horses [E]stop going [Am]around
There he was my poor rich man
[F]Lying on the Mexico [Esus4]ground[E][Am]
