 G5                 D5                   C5                 G5 
 Didn't have much money back then  but I saved up everything 
 C5                    G5                       D5 
 Hitched a ride into town one evening  and I bought you a ring 
 G5                      D5                C5                           G5 
 It didn't shine like diamonds but god it meant a lot to me 
 C5                     G5                         C5            G5 
 I was so proud when you said yes when I got down on my knee 
 G5                               D5                C5                      G5 
 You should know by now that news travels fast In this one story town 
 G5              D5                  C5                       G5 
 I overheard a conversation one day as I was settin down 
 G5                           D5                      C5  G5 
 In the coffee shop well the tales grow tall sometimes they're true 
 C5                   G5                  D5            C5           G5 
 I heard a man describin' this woman  It sounded a lot like you 
 E5                           D5                        C5  G5 
 He said her husband was gone all last week on a cattle run to Santa Fe 
 C5                   G5                      D5 
 Now he had to lay low for awhile  He's comin home today 
 E5                  D5                  C5                        G5 
 And he went on to laugh about this cheap ol ring she wore 
 C5            G5                           D5          C5            G5 
 I heard my world crumblin in my ears  Then I walked out the door 
       C5                       D5                       G5    E5 
 Did he sweep you off your feet last night  Did you plan out who he would  be 
       C5                           D5                       G5    E5 
 Now you're just a laugh in his coffee shop story  How could you do this to me 
       C5                       D5                       G5   E5 
 When I promised forever and you said I Do  I guess that didn't mean a thing 
       G5                             D5                              C5 
 So last night when you loved him God I hope you took off your ring 
 G5            D5                   C5                          G5 
 We wander through this life  searchin for something strong 
 C5                       G5                  D5 
 We build our house on trust and love and pray that nothing goes wrong 
 G5                    D5             C5                 G5 
 I'm takin off my ring tonight to show you how I feel 
 C5                     G5                            D5           C5  G5 
 The next time you go makin those promises   Make a few that are real 
  
 Chorus 
  

             G5                        D5                     C5  G5
