Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch
Spotlight, don't let it show
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
That my heart went with her when I let her go
ch]Em[/ch] [ch]G[/ch

Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch
I got a friend named Whiskey Sam
ch]D[/ch
He was my boonie rat buddy for a year in 'Nam
ch]E[/ch
He said, "Is my country just a little off track?
ch]A[/ch
Took 'em twenty-five years to welcome me back."
ch]A[/ch
But, it's better than not coming back at all
ch]D[/ch
Many a good man I saw fall
ch]E[/ch
And even now, every time I dream
ch]A[/ch
I hear the men and the monkeys in the jungle scream
ch]A[/ch
But drive on, it don't mean nothin'
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
My children love me and they understand
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And I got a woman that loves her man, drive on
ch]A[/ch
It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin'
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Drive on
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch
I remember one night, Tex and me
ch]D[/ch
Walked right up on two V.C.
ch]E[/ch
But we had our 16's on rock and roll
ch]A[/ch
And we separated them from their souls
ch]A[/ch
We were crazy and we were wild
ch]D[/ch
And I have seen the tiger smile
ch]E[/ch
I spit in a bamboo viper's face
ch]A[/ch
And I'd be dead, but by God's grace
ch]A[/ch
Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
My children love me and they understand
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And I got a woman that loves her man, drive on
ch]A[/ch
It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin'
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Drive on
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch
When a mortar fell twenty feet away
ch]D[/ch
And I carry shrapnel to this day
ch]E[/ch
I came home, but Tex did not
ch]A[/ch
And I can't talk about the hit he got
ch]A[/ch
I got a little limp now when I walk
ch]D[/ch
And I got a little tremolo when I talk
ch]E[/ch
But I finally found out who I am
ch]A[/ch
I'm a walking, talking miracle from Vietnam
ch]A[/ch
Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
My children love me and they understand
ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
And I got a woman that loves her man, drive on
ch]A[/ch
It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin'
ch]E[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Drive on

Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
It sure has been a party, hasn't it, baby?
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
We've really been down that road a time or two
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
We checked into the best hotels from San Francisco to Paris
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
And lived like royalty, me and you
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
But remember years ago in that church in Ottawa?
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
We told God of our love and asked for His care
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And so He made us happen and He blessed us
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
So if we were in the fold or out, He was always there
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And I love you tonight
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Even more than I loved you in the sixties
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And I know that we are right
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
Even more than I knew it in the seventies
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Oh, baby, ain't we a sight?
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Can you believe we made it through the eighties?
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/B[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And will we make the millennium? Well, we might
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
I love you tonight
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch
It's funny how we never settle down
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Though we love our home and sitting by the fire
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
But we can't be at home for three days 'til we get itchy feet
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
And people always ask, "When are you gonna retire?"
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
But your people have always been my people
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And you have always gone wherever I go
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/B[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And when it's all over, I hope we will go together
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C7[/ch
I don't want you to be alone, you know
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And I love you tonight
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Even more than I loved you in the sixties
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And I know that we are right
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
Even more than I knew it in the seventies
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Oh, baby, ain't we a sight?
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Can you believe we made it through the eighties?
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]C/B[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And will we make the millennium? Well, we might
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
I love you tonight

It's the land of my family
ch]G[/ch
Down in Cleveland County
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
It's where my mama and daddy were born
ch]C[/ch
Where the singing pines grow

Down in the Ouachita country

Wash away your misery
ch]C[/ch
You feel like Henry Ford

Right off the scenic highway
ch]G[/ch
Shake the hand of a farmеr
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Have a cool watermelon
ch]C[/ch
That wеighs a hundred pounds
ch]C[/ch
And in the Mississippi Delta land
ch]G[/ch
They're growing rice and cotton
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
In the fields all week long
ch]C[/ch
Saturday night in town
Interlude
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch
Yes, I love my people
ch]G[/ch
And I'm proud of my raising
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Sweet Arkansas memories
ch]C[/ch
Until they leave me down
ch]C[/ch
Have you ever been to Little Rock?
ch]G[/ch
Have you ever been to Little Rock?

Those Arkansas women

Born with beauty and grace

Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch
I met her at the laundromat, she was washing extra hot
ch]A[/ch
I said, "Don't you need a little help with that big load you got?"
ch]D[/ch
She said, "No," but did a double take and then she smiled and said, "I might"

As I rolled up my sleeves, I said to myself, "Well, alright."
ch]A[/ch
Well, alright

I put it on automatic and she sat down on the floor
ch]A[/ch

Then I opened up the dryer and I set it on soft and light

Hеr clothes were in the basket folded down, so nice and warm

She said, "I just live up the street," I said, "It's a dangerous night.
ch]E7[/ch] [ch]A[/ch
Take my arm and I'll carry the basket." And she said, "Well, alright."
ch]A[/ch
Well, alright
Verse 4→ Phiên khúc
ch]A[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch
The world's half full of women and the world's half full of men

And sometimes one or the other opens up to let one in

But the one I met at the laundromat that dangerous beautiful night

Said, "Yes, I do," and "Yes, I will," and I said, "Well alright"

Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
She had a heart full of love
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
For her baby, for life, and James Taylor
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
She nursed her baby, and she closed her eyes
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
She was a cowgirl, truck driver, and sailor
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
In her mind, she wasn't abandoned
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Though the baby was all that she had
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
She was lonely at night when the babe was asleep
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
But when singing, it wasn't so bad
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And she sang "Sweet Baby James"
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And she flew o'er the turnpikes, the mountain and sea
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And she looked to the skies, where hеaven should be
ch]G7[/ch
Said, "Could it be thеre's no heaven for me?
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
The only difference in my life and hell are the flames"

So she sang "Sweet Baby James"
Interlude
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
She had to work for a living
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And her mom kept the babe every day
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
The driving paid minimum wages to all
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch
And was so little carry-home pay
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
But she'd take her own flights of fancy
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Each time she found herself alone
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
She'd get on her dream song and she'd sail away
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
With her baby to find that new home
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And she sang "Sweet Baby James"
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And she flew o'er the turnpikes, the mountains and sea
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And she looked to the skies, where hеaven should be
ch]G7[/ch
Said, "Could it be thеre's no heaven for me?
ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
The only difference in my life and hell are the flames"
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
So she sang "Sweet Baby James"
ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
"The only difference in my life and hell are the flames"
ch]F[/ch] [ch]G7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
So she sang "Sweet Baby James"

Intro
Verse 1→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch
She never could give up the homestead on the farm
ch]G[/ch
Where they handed off tobacco in the big tobacco barn
ch]D7[/ch
And the long straight rows that ran from the house down to the road
ch]G[/ch
That went to A.P. Carter's Store, down the logging truck she rode
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Oh, she'd sit and she'd gaze at the foggy mountain top
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Where the swift hawk circled 'round the Clinch Mountain rocks
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
At the school down in Hiltons, she'd read about the world
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Created to be conquered by this poor valley girl
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch
Her mother was an Addington, from over Copper Creek
ch]G[/ch
Her father was of sturdy stock, she was royal but meek
ch]D7[/ch
Her laughter was infectious, her music was pure joy
ch]G[/ch
She'd win the hearts of many men, as she had many a boy
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch
Her mother became famous, Maybelle and her guitar
ch]G[/ch
With sisters Helen and Anita; the family was four star
ch]D7[/ch
She gave the world two daughters, and a son with auburn curls
ch]G[/ch
And I thank God that he gave me this sweet poor valley girl
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Oh, she'd sit and she'd gaze at the foggy mountain top
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Where the swift hawk circled 'round the Clinch Mountain rocks
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
At the school down in Hiltons, she'd read about the world
ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch

So you gave up all between us for a glamorous career
