A D A
I've held it all inward, Lord knows I've tried
A E A
But it's an awful awakening in a country boy's life
A D A
To look in the mirror in total surprise
A E A
At the hair on your shoulders and the age in your eyes.
[Refrão] A D A
Amanda, light of my life
A E A
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
A D A
Amanda, light of my life
A E A
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
It's a measure of people who don't understand
The pleasures of life in a hillbilly band.
I got my first guitar when I was fourteen
Now I'm crowding 30 and still wearing jeans.
