E A E Well Loretta she's my barroom girl A E Wears them sevens on her sleeves E A E Dances like a diamond shines A E Tells me lies I love to b'lieve B7 Her age is always twenty two A E Her laughin' eyes a hazel hue E A E Spends my money like water falls A E Loves me like I want her to Well Loretta won't you say to me Darlin' put your guitar on Have a little shot of booze Play a blue and wailin' song My guitar rings a melody My guitar sings "Loretta's fine" Long and lazy, blond and free I can have her any time Sweetest at the break a day Prettiest in the setting sun She don't cry when I can't stay 'Least not 'til she's all alone Loretta I won't be gone long Keep your dancin' slippers on Keep me on your mind a while I'll be back babe, to make you smile. repeat 1st & 2nd verse, 2nd verse last line twice, end There's a different version of this verse on some records: Loretta I won't be gone long Keep your dancin' slippers on Keep me on your mind a while I'm comin' home, I'm comin' home. And between each pair of verses Townes plays a simple bass run twice: E A E |-----------------0---- |-----------------0---- |-----------------1---- |------2-2-h4-2---2---- |-2-h4----------4-2---- |-----------------0---- Enjoy ! jk ----------------------------------------------------------- jk13@aol.com (John Kearney) "If we do not change direction, we will end up where we are headed."
