		    BbWon't (x1333x@1)you love me a spell?

(same as just above)
This is blindness beyond all conceiving
Well, behind us the road is leaving, yeah, leaving
And falling back
Like a rope gone slack

	G (320003@1)Well, I saw straight away that the lay was steep
	F (133211@1)			CBut (x32010@1)I fell for you, honey, as easy as falling asleep

	     F (133211@1)CIs (x32010@1)going to soften the fall
		    Bb (x1333x@1) FBut, (133211@1)like after the rain, step out
	G (320003@1) AmOf (x02210@1)the overhang, that's all

It had a nice a ring to it
When the ol' opry house rang
So with a solemn auld lang
Signed, sealed, delivered, I sang

And there is hesitation
And it always remains
Concerning you, me,
And the rest of the gang

And in our quiet hour
I feel I see everything
And am in love with the hook
Upon which everyone hangs

And I know you meant to show the extent
To which you gave a goddang
You ranged real hot and real cold but I'm sold
I am home on that range

Bb (x1333x@1)FAnd (133211@1)I do hate to fold
		G (320003@1)AmRight (x02210@1)here at the top of my game
				Bb (x1333x@1)FWhen (133211@1)I've been trying with my whole heart and soul

			Bb (x1333x@1)FBut (133211@1)it can make you feel over and old
	  G (320003@1)AmLord, (x02210@1)you know it's a shame
			Bb (x1333x@1)	FWhen (133211@1)I only want for you to pull over and hold me
		G (320003@1)Am'Til (x02210@1)I can't remember my own name
