Intro:  D5 

D5                                G5 
You followed me to Texas, 
A5                            D5 
You followed me to Utah. 
                                 G5                A5 
We didn't find it there, so we moved on 
D5                                 G5 
You went with me to Alabam', 
A5                                         D5 
Things looked good in Birmingham. 
                              G5                A5 
We didn't find it there, so we moved on. 


               D5                  G5 
I know you're tired of following 
A5                   D5           
My elusive dreams and schemes. 
G5                             D5 
For their only fleeting things. 
A5                    D5 
My elusive dreams.  


D5                                  G5 
You had my child in Memphis, 
A5                              D5 
I heard of work in Nashville. 
                          G5                A5 
We didn't find it there, so we moved on. 
D5                                 G5 
To a small farm in Nebraska, 
A5                           D5 
To a gold mine in Alaska. 
                                G5                  A5 
We didn't find it there, so we moved on. 


D5                       G5 
Now we've left Alaska 
A5                                         D5 
'cause there was no gold mine. 
                                   G5          A5 
But this time only two of us moved on. 

Spoken: 
D5                                     G5 
Now all we have is each other 
A5                   D5 
And a little to cling to. 
                                       G5           A5    
And still you won't let me go, go on alone. 


                       D5           G5 
I know you're tired of following 
A5                       D5 
My elusive dreams and schemes. 
G5                                  D5 
For their only fleeting things. 
A5            D5   
My elusive dreams. 


G5                                D5 
For their only fleeting things. 
A5                     D5 
My elusive dreams.
