A D
I remember it well as he road into town one day,
 
E A
'Neth the hat that was black, top the horse that was grey.
 
D
His eyes were red, his face unshaved, and his spurs were a shiney steel.
 
E A
His shirt was stained with tobbaco, and his lips cracked and peeled.
 
D
Silver concho lined his belt, and buckle was trimmed in gold
 
E A
And the brand on the grey was a firey display of a man now growin' old.
 
F#m D
Well his voice was gruff and his boots were scuffed as he entered those
 
A
swingin' doors.
 
F#m D
With a back that was bent he ordered whisky straight up he drank it down,
 
E
wanted more.
 
A D
With a stare as sharp as a razors edge, his vision was not all clear
 
E A
He said boys, I got memories of how good a bad woman can feel.
 
Chorus
E D E
He said do you know how good a bad woman feels
 
A D
Like a good straight shot of whisky
 
E
at the end of the trail
 
F#m
You know life is hard and she a soft place to fall
 
D A
and at any price, she's a steal
 
E A
Do you know how good a bad woman feels
 
(SOLO) F#m D A E A E
 
A D
By now a crowd had gathered to hear this old man tell his tale
 
E A
And as he wiped the sweat from his thin grey brow, He said I've had my fill.
D
He walked outside and stepped into the saddle as the grey truned and wheeled.
 
E
But I'll never forget what the old cowboy said 'bout how good a bad woman can
 
A
feel.
 
Repeat Chorus
 
Bridge
 
F#m D A
He said, I've seen it all, took some bad falls and delt me some crooked deals
E D A E A
And I know how good a bad woman feels. Yo-De-La-Eeeee
