This is is John Butler's new song "Kimberly" as played on the "Tin Shed Tales" solo album. John butler plays this piece in Dropped F Although, I have transcribed it to STANDARD tuning for ease of playing.. Intro:(The chords aren't actually played here; but I would recommend single strums if you wish to back it) F Asus4 I am what I am and I am strong Bb Cause I got my land and I got my song F Asus4 I am what I am and I am belong Bb Cause I got my land and I got my song Harmonica Bridge: (F-F-Asus4-Bb) x4 F Asus4 Bb Tell you a story, about a girl named Kimberly F Asus4 Bb Who all the cowboys wanted cause she was wild and free F Asus4 Bb But now theres fussing and theres fighting We all taking sides F Asus4 Bb While the cowboys are playing their old games of conquer and divide. You see F Asus4 Bb Kimberly was special, a rare and wild soul F Asus4 Bb Nearly every man who met her, their hearts she always stole F Asus4 Bb But there are always those exceptions of the cold and callous kind F Asus4 Bb That wanted just her body and leave the mess for us behind F Asus4 Bb Now the prince of the cowboys, his name was Barnett F Asus4 Bb He wanted to leave his mark, you know, so we did not forget F Asus4 Bb So he said "Mine mine mine, all for me" F Asus4 Bb It's great to be a cowboy in the wild west roaming free F Asus4 Bb So he brandished all his bullets he put a gun right to our head F Asus4 Bb He said "I'm giving you all a choice now, you're either with me or your dead F Asus4 Bb You know I got to have this kim, I cant get her off my mind F Asus4 Bb And I aint gonna stop until shes mine, mine" G Bb Where do i stand? Asus4 C Got this hole in my heart and a line drawn in the G Bb sand. It's all gray. Asus4 C G There are no black and whites so who am I to say F Asus4 I am what I am and I am strong Bb Cause I got my land and I got my song F Asus4 I am what I am and I am belong Bb Cause I got my land and I got my song Harmonica Bridge: (F-F-Asus4-Bb) x4 F Asus4 Bb Now its come to a showdown and its all push and pull F Asus4 Bb Got these lawyers having field day while the cowboys are funding schools F Asus4 Bb I guess it boils down to how you see it, do you see Kimberly, F Asus4 Bb Or just another god damn hole in the ground just another opportunity? G Bb Where do i stand? Asus4 C Got this hole in my heart and a line drawn in the G Bb sand. It's all gray. Asus4 C G There are no black and whites so who am I to say Bb You are wrong Asus4 C G but you never know what you got until its gone Bb And one day Asus4 C G the little people will ask what you did and what we said F Asus4 I am what I am and I am strong Bb Cause I got my land and I got my song F Asus4 I am what I am and I am belong Bb Cause I got my land and I got my song F Asus4 I am what I am and I am strong Bb Cause I got my land and I got my song F Asus4 I am what I am and I am belong Bb Cause I got my land and I got my song
