#Slow Movin’ Outlaw, by Waylon Jennings.
#
#Outlaws I know, RCA years I think, maybe Best Of.
#Someone contributed the chords to Willy’s version, and
#those chords look like Willy’s but sure not like
#Waylon’s. This was my first ever attempt at figuring
#chords, and there are two problems. I’m not quite
#sure the ‘chorus’ progression is right but nothing
#else I’ve tried works at all, and stranger yet is that
#the verse progression seems to follow the same order
#but change at slightly different places. See what you
#think.
#
All the old stations, are being torn down.
And the high flyin’ trains no longer roll.
The floors are all sagging,
With boards that are suffering,
from not being used anymore.
Things are all changing, the world’s rearranging,
A time that will soon be no more…
Where has a slow moving, once quick draw outlaw, got
to go?
The whiskey that once settled the dust,
and tasted so fine,
Now tastes of pain.
And the memories it once blotted out,
come back stronger, more clearly with each drink you
take.
The women that warmed you, you once thought so pretty,
Now look haggard and old.
Where has a slow moving, once quick draw outlaw, got
to go?
The land where I traveled, once fashioned with beauty,
now stands with scars on her face.
The wide open spaces, are closing in quickly,
from the weight of the whole human race.
And its not that I blame them, for claiming her
bounty,
I just wish they’d taken it slow,
Where has a slow moving, once quick draw outlaw, got
to go?

3/4 time, hit the G string and ‘A string as bass notes during D chord slow steady strum

Women do know how to carry on
Well, there won’t be too much cryin’ time alone
They’ll be right back puttin’ red and makeup on
Women do know how to carry on?

[Verse 1]

When she can’t keep love afloat she will survive
In her soft and sexy way she’s gonna shuck and jive
Wipe the tears and find the things that she needs to get along
Women do know how to carry on?
Women do know how to carry on? yeah.

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]

Never knew a man who could take a fall
They’ll land right on their pride and then they waste it all
But even when the best she’s ever had is gone
Women do know how to carry on?

Women do know how to carry on
Well, there won’t be too much cryin’ time alone
They’ll be right back puttin’ red and makeup on
Women do know how to carry on?

[Instrumental]

They’ll be right back puttin’ red and makeup on

[Instrumental]

There won’t be too much cryin’ time alone
They’ll be right back puttin’ red and makeup on
Women do know how to carry on?…

This time if you want me to come back it’s up to you
But remember I won’t allow the things you used to do
You’re gonna have to toe the mark and walk the line
This time will be the last time

This time if I should feel unwanted I won’t stay
Each tomorrow will depend on the love you give today
It’s all up to you but keep in mind
This time will be the last time

This time should be anything like the other times
This time will be the last time

If this time should be anything like the other times
This time will be the last time

Verse 2:
I have faced that cunning ennemy called time
For awhile i held him cold and to a draw
As he rode away he said another place and day
‘Cause you can’t erase the writing on the wall
Although this one was just too close to call

Verse 3:
As i wrestled with my deepest fear in life
I was captured by the shadows on the wall
I was brave but just the same,i was glad when morning came
Because now and then the footsteps in the hall
Remind me it was just too close to call

Verse 4:
I have watched my mind dance too close to the edge
As i stood among the crowd to see it fall
Sometimes now i cling to what i hope is sanity
I stagger on this fine like that i walk
And wonder is it just too close to call

The good life is too far behind.
I never remember thie things that I had,
Till the time between bottles of wine.
[(3)]If momma could see me she wouldn’t believe
I even resemble her son.
She worked all her life to make me a man
And she’s proud of the job that she’s done.
What one love created,another destroyed
its a story older than time.
The tale of a man, who just can’t stand
The time between bottles of wine

BORN TO LOVE YOU
sung by Waylon Jennings

Born to love, only you.
Destined to die, alone without you.
Knowing my dreams, can never come true.
Yet knowing that I, was born to love you.

Night after night, longing for you.
Living a lie, built around you.
Knowing my dreams, can never come true.
Yet knowing that I, was born to love you.

SOLO G – D – G

Knowing my dreams, can never come true.
Yet knowing that I, was born to love you.

Grew up in Houston off a wayside drive
Son of a carhop in some all-night dive
Dad drove a stock car to an early death
All I remember was a drunk man?s breath
Ain?t livin? long like this
Can?t live at all like this can I baby
We know the story how the wheel goes ?round
Don?t let ?em take you to the man downtown
Can?t sleep at all in the jailhouse baby
Ain?t livin? long like this
Can?t live at all like this, can I baby

Instrumental

I live for Angel, she?s the roadhouse queen
Make Texas Ruby look like Sandra Dee
I want to love her but I don?t know how
I?m at the bottom of the jailhouse now
Ain?t livin? long like this
Can?t live at all like this, can I baby
You know the story ?bout the jailhouse rock
Go on and do it just don?t get caught
They got ?em all in the jailhouse, baby
Ain?t livin? long like this
I can?t live at all like this, can I baby

Instrumental

Fade out?

Windin’ your way down on Baker Street
Light in your head and dead on your feet
Well another crazy day, you’ll drink the night away
And f[D/A]orget about everything
Those city streets make you feel so cold
It’s got so many people but it’s got no soul
It’s takin’ you so long to find out you were wrong
When you [D/A]thought it held everything

CHORUS:
Used to think that it was so easy, used to say that it was so easy
But you’re tryin’, you’re tryin’ now
Another year and then you’ll be happy, just one more year and then you’ll be happy
But you’re pryin’, you’re pryin’ now

INTRO

Way down the street there’s a light in this place
He opens the door he’s got that look on his face
He’ll ask you where you been, you’ll tell him what you seen
And then you’ll talk about anything
He’s got this dream about buyin’ some land
He’s gonna give up the booze and the one night stands
Then he’ll settle down in a quiet little town
And forget about everything

CHORUS 2:

But you know he’s gonna keep movin, no he’s never gonna stop movin’
‘Cause he’s a rollin, he’s a rollin’ stone
When you wake up it’s a new mornin’, the sun is shinin’ it’s a new mornin’
You’re goin’, you’re goin’ home

INTRO OUT

A LOT OF GOOD

written by Waylon Jennings,Troy Seals and Bobby Emmons

performed by Waylon Jennings.

PART ONE:

Verse 1:
As i watched the tail lights disappear
Suddenly it got real lonely here
I know the words i could have said

To make her turn around
But a lot of good it’s gonna do me now

Verse 2:
I could have started with i'm sorry
And really meant it from the heart
The rest would have been easy
Together in the dark

Verse 3:
We could have found that old time feeling
That we lost somewhere somehow
But a lot of good it’s gonna do me now

PART TWO:(half a tone higher)

Verse 4:
Still thinking about the things i could have said
And looking at her picture by the bed
I realized just what i’ve lost as i pulled the covers down
But a lot of good it’s gonna do me now

Verse 5:
I could have told her i was sorry
And really meant it from the heart
The rest would have been easy
Together in the dark

Verse 6:
We could have found that old time feeling
That we lost somewhere somehow
But a lot of good it’s gonna do me now

A lot of good it’s gonna do me now

INTRO: D

Rock on gold dust woman, take your silver spoon and dig your grave
Heartless challenge, pick your path and I’ll pray
Wake up in the mornin’, see your sunrise loves to go down
Lousy lover, pick the brave but they never cry out loud, no

CHORUS:
Well did he make you cry, make you break down
Shatter your illusions of love
Is it over now, do you know how
To pick up the pieces and go home

Rock on ancient queen, follow those who pave in your shadow
Rulers make bad lovers, you better put your kingdom up for sale

CHORUS (2x)

SOLO OUT
