Amanda Chords by Don Williams

key: A
1st Verse> 
     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. 


CHORUS -----------------------------------------
 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

<2nd Verse> 
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.
