[Intro]
C F C G C
[Chorus]
C
Louisiana man with a style his own
C
Not like some other men I've known
G
With his cowboy boots and his hats he wore so well
C F C
Caught my eye on the very first day
F C
And I never will forget the way
G C
He played guitar and he sang just like an angel
[Verse 1]
F C
Thoughts of you flicker past
F C
Goin' on down the road so fast
G
The trees and the bushes and the telephone poles fly by
F C
I never seem to have the time
F C
I'll just have to keep you on my mind
G C
How I wish I could keep you by my side

Country man with a heart of gold

One more kiss before I hit the road
G
Hold me one more time before I go
F C
Nights will be longer now
F C
But I'll get along somehow
G C
I've learned how to do it all before
[Out-Chorus]
