Silence on the Line

guitar chords lyrics

Chris LeDoux

Album : CowboyPlayStop



D G A
Took my last fall in San Diego
D G A
Bus headed north one headed south
G A D
I call a farm in Colorado
G A
And I lift a dusty pay phone to my mouth


D G A
She says hello I say it's me hon
D G A
Sorry I stayed away so long
G A D
Tell the kids thier old man's through with playin' rodeo
G A
Cause if it's alright with you I'm comin' home


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


D G A
I guess that nows the time I'd better tell her
D G A
Hon I've got this old friend that's here with me
G A D A G
He used to be a cowboy and a good one so they say

A
But now his legs are crippled he can't walk you see
D G A
But hon you ought to hear him tell his stories
D G A
Sing the old songs play the guitar too
G A D
I'd really like to show him Colorado
G A
But I thought I'd better leave it up to you


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


D G A
Well cryin's just for kids I put down the phone
D G A
Fumble with my crutches movin' slow
G A D A G
I wish that I was on the bus that's Colorado bound
G A D
And I hope the weather's nice in Mexico
