Intro – A – F#m – A – F#m

(verse 1)
Love can’t be measured with diamonds and gold,
Before you spend your money I oughta let you know,
If you wanna get to me, try the little things,

Don’t need that mansion on top of the hill,
Too many rooms with nothing to fill,
You can’t furnish me, with the little things,

(chorus)
Rub my back, make me laugh,
Hold me while I dream,
All it takes, to make my day,
Is to tell me that you love me,
Little Things,[-][-][-]

(verse 3)
It doesn’t matter what mood I’m in,
I always melt when you begin whispering,
Little Things,

(chorus)
Rub my back, make me laugh,
Hold me while I dream,
All it takes, to make my day,
Is to tell me that you love me,
Little Things,[-][-][-]

(bridge)
Rainy walks, a midnight talk
Dance me on your feet
Hold me close, don’t let go All I need is

(chorus)
Rub my back, make me laugh,
Hold me while I dream,
All it takes, to make my day,
Is to tell me that you love me,
Little Things,[-][-][-]

(ending chorus)
Is a single rose a kiss hello
That smile upon your face
The tender way you say my name
Takes my breath away yeah

Intro: A \ D E A \ D E A \ A \\

She’ll always get you when your guard is down
Pick you up and then drag you round
And everybody knows you’ll be found
Following a trail of tears

She keeps her heart all locked in chains
Never have a chance to love again
But you won’t be the first my friend
You’re following a trail of tears

A trail of teardrops always fall
Cos girls like that don’t care at all
She just wants to see you crawl
A E A \ D E A \ A \\
Crawling through the trail of tears

You’ll tell her that you need her so
But she’ll just laugh and then you’ll know
That you’ve got a lifetime left to go
Following a trail of tears

A trail of teardrops always fall
Cos girls like that don’t care at all
She just wants to see you crawl
Crawling through the trail of tears

Inst: D G D A E A D G D A E A A

You’re asking me how I can tell
But it’s a story that I know well
Cause I’ve been walked all over hell
Following a trail of tears

A trail of teardrops always fall
Girls like that don’t care at all
She just wants to see you crawl
Crawling through the trail of tears

A trail of teardrops always fall
Girls like that don’t care at all
She just wants to see you crawl
Crawling through the trail of tears

—(capo 1st fret)—

(verse 1)
Somehow I knew I’d see you tonight,
Here in our old rondavous,
I’m at the mercy of old memories
You’ve got your somebody new,
You may wonder why I keep coming by,
With this heart so broken in two,
Any fool can see with one look at me,
that it’s only over for you,

(chorus)
It’s only over for you no,
I’m not the one who found somebody new,
You can go on believing we’re through,
Ohh but it’s only over,
It’s only over for you,

(verse 2)
As I watch you falling in love
you can’t see me falling apart,
And even though you hurt me,
I know I still love you with all of my heart,

But I won’t hide my face in a stranger’s embrace,
when we dance into each other’s view,
No don’t be surprised at these tears in my eyes cause it’s only,
over for you.

(chorus)
It’s only over for you no,
I’m not the one who found somebody new,
You can go on believing we’re through,
Ohh but it’s only over,
It’s only over for you,
It’s only over for you,
It’s only over for you,

They’re tuning those twin Texas fiddles it will soon be hold me time
I’m in such an easy mood It’s close to four for time
All alone at a table for two just me and the candle light
Shuffle with me Houston stranger… it’s a cowboy lovin’ night

My last good time was in Dallas… we danced every song
we promised each other forever… forever didn’t last that long
Faded Love is playing… it could be the time is right
shuffle with me Houston stranger… it’s a cowboy lovin’ night

It’s been so long since Dallas… many lonely nights have come and gone
We may not last but a dance a two, but it might last all night long
Faded Love is playing… it could be the time is right
shuffle with me Houston stranger… it’s a cowboy lovin’ night

Fiddle Solo

Ooh, Faded Love is playing… it could be the time is right
shuffle with me Houston stranger… it’s a cowboy lovin’ night

WE DON’T HAVE TO DO THIS

INTRO: G / / / D / / / G / / / D / / /
If anyone had told me things would get this far
I would have told them they were crazy yet here we are
Pride can be our enemy, we both know the cost
So tell me if you have any second thoughts
We don’t have to do this, its not carved in stone
Or are we so lost we can’t find our way back home.
Tell me where’s it written that we can’t change our
minds
We don’t have to do this, we don’t have to say goodbye
Years should count for something, tears can’t be in
vain
To let this go so easy, would be a shame
We don’t have to do this, its not carved in stone
Or are we so lost we can’t find our way back home.
Tell me where’s it written that we can’t change our
minds
We don’t have to do this, we don’t have to say goodbye
If leaving is the answer why does it feel so bad.
Should we really walk away from everything we had.
Tell me where’s it written that we can’t change our
minds
No we don’t have to do this, we don’t have to say goodbye.
We don’t have to do this, we don’t have to say goodbye.

Chorus:
X D Bm D Bm
Another love Just another love I don’t wanna be just another love
On your list of hearts you’ve torn apart Then you cast them aside
Oh can’t you see that I don’t wanna be
No I don’t wanna be just another love in your life

X G
1. Well I hear you’re got a reputation in town
Of taking all the young girls and bringing them down own own
You’ve given me an invitation to stay
But boy you know my hearts says I oughta be running away ay
Well I’ve never been burn so I guess it’s my turn
I’m gonna see how strong I am

Chorus

X G
2. Well you’ve got some kind of magic in your big brown eyes
Where’d you ever learn how to hynotise
Just like in the romance books that I’ve read
Drinking in the navy shade of my canope bed
Well I’ve never been hurt so I’ll see what it’s worth
I’m gonna see how strong I am

chorus
Well I’ve never been hurt so I’ll see what it’s worth
I’m gonna give your love a try

Subject: Would You Lay With Me
Sung by: Tanya Tucker
I believe David Allan Coe wrote this one & recorded it also

WOULD YOU LAY WITH ME

WOULD YOU LAY WITH ME IN A FIELD OF STONE

IF MY NEEDS WERE STRONG, WOULD YOU LAY WITH ME

SHOULD MY LIPS GROW DRY WOULD YOU WET THEM DEAR
IN THE MIDNIGHT HOUR, IF MY LIPS WERE DRY

CHO:
WOULD YOU GO AWAY TO ANOTHER LAND

WALK A THOUSAND MILES THROUGH THE BURNIN’ SAND
WIPE THE BLOOD AWAY, FROM MY DYIN’ HAND
IF I GIVE MYSELF TO YOU

WOULD YOU BATHE WITH ME IN THE STREAM OF LIFE

WHEN THE MOON IS FULL WOULD YOU BATHE WITH ME

WILL YOU STILL LOVE ME WHEN I’M DOWN AND OUT
IN MY TIME OF TRIAL WILL YOU STAND BY ME
(REPEAT CHO:)

Capo 1

He just caught the Jamestown Ferry,
It’s not a hot day in January,
Like he said it’d be if he ever left me.
A case of gone was all he carried,
As he got on the Jamestown Ferry,
And he said that gone was all he’d ever be.

I didn’t think that he’d leave me,
After sayin’ how much he needs me.
But the fact still remains I’m sittin’ here all alone.
Missin’ the lovin’ of my baby
Lord, it’s about to drive me crazy.
He was the sweetest piece of heaven I’ve ever known.

Chorus

Up 1/2 step to B

As I walk through his kingdom,
Of honky tonks and bars,
Well, I remember how he’d hold me and comfort me with talk.
He didn’t cuss with every breath, he had a soothing Southern drawl,
He made me feel like a lady through it all.

He just caught the Jamestown Ferry,
It’s not a hot day in January,
Like he said it’d be if he ever left me.
A case of gone was all he carried,
As he got on the Jamestown Ferry,
And he said that gone was all he’d ever be.

He just caught the Jamestown Ferry,
It’s not a hot day in January,
Like he said it’d be if he ever left me.
A case of gone was all he carried,
As he got on the Jamestown Ferry,
And he said that gone was all he’d ever be.

Intro – A – D

(chorus)
If your heart ain’t busy tonight,
Maybe it would like to get with mine,

If your heart ain’t busy tonight,
Well I could keep it occupied,
for a long long time,[-]
If your lips ain’t got something pressing to do,
If your arms aren’t held up,
well their invited too,
If your heart ain’t busy tonight
Maybe it would like to get with mine, anytime

(verse 1)
Well its kind of you to lend me an ear,
Well that’s a start but I believe,
If I could only get the rest of you over here,
Then all of you might fall in love with all of me,
If your heart ain’t busy tonight,
Maybe it would like to get with mine, anytime

(lead chords – A – D – A – A – D – A)

(verse 2)
If your feet are restless for somewhere to go,
And your eyes want something more to see,
Why don’t you let them lead the rest of you to my door,
So all of you can fall in love with all of me,

(chorus)
If your heart ain’t busy tonight,
Maybe it would like to get with mine,

If your heart ain’t busy tonight,
Well I could keep it occupied,
for a long long time,[-]
If your lips ain’t got something pressing to do,
If your arms aren’t held up,
well their invited too,
If your heart ain’t busy tonight
Maybe it would like to get with mine, anytime
