C                   G7             C
 I still recall the morning that I met you 
         F                                 C
Standing out in front of Wilson's five and dime 
                    Am            F
Staring through the window at the jewelry 
D                                   G7
 Hungry for the things you couldn't buy 
     C             G7                   C
Just like a fool I thought that I could please you 
                         C7          F
I saw you had an eye for things that shine 
                                    C
I paid seven saw mill dollars for a bracelet 
                     G7             C
Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind. 
Am                                 F
Layin' by these railroad tracks in Denver 
       C                                 G7
With a hurtin' head and a half a pint of wine 
      Am                                F
Every-thing except my soul has been sur- rendered 
        C            G7             C
Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind.  
 
The cabin that I built in West Virginia 

Was not enough to keep you satisfied 

'Cause a man that's got a saw mill occupation 

Can't afford to feed a rich girls' appetite 

I wonder if you're still with Willie Jackson 

Sometimes I wonder if he's still alive 

Ol' Willie he gave up his wife and children 

Just to satisfy your fourteen carat mind.
