The Cowboy and the Lady Chords & Lyrics by John Denver
The Cowboy and the Lady
guitar chords lyrics
Capo II
D G Em F#m Em D
D
In the airport lounge she sat
G
In a fancy feathered hat
Em G D
The grandest lady I had ever seen
D
Outside the heavy rains
G
Had grounded all the planes
Em D
So I asked her if she'd like some company
D
In my rhinestone studded suit
G
My cowboy hat and boots
Em G D
I must have been a sight for her to see
D
But she said, "Pull up a chair"
G
As she fumbled with her hair
Em D
A more unlikely pair you'll never see
D
I was Mogen Davis wine
G
She was Chablis '59
Em G D
But there we sat, the cowboy and the lady
D
She was evenings at the Opera
G
And summers in Paris
Em D
I was Grand Ole Op'ry, Nashville, Tennessee
Bm A
The cowboy and the lady
G F#m
As different as could be
Bm A
But it seemed so right
G Em A(pause)
That rainy night in Tennessee
D
And somewhere in between
G
Her Harvey's Bristol Cream
Em G D
And the beer I drank and the easy company
D
We somehow came together
G
For a night of stormy weather
Em D
Now there's a little bit of class in this old cowboy
G F#m Em D
There's a little bit of cowboy in the lady
Solo: D G Em F#m Em D
Bm A
The cowboy and the lady
G F#m
As different as could be
Bm A
But it seemed so right
G Em A(pause)
That rainy night in Tennessee
Interlude: D G Em G D
D
We somehow came together
G
For a night of stormy weather
Em D
Now there's a little bit of class in this old cowboy
G F#m(pause)
There's a little bit of cowboy in the lady
Repeat and Fade: D G Em G D
