Capo 1st Fret
E E7
By and by,
A
I'm breathing a lover's sigh.
Bm7
Bb
Well, I'm sitting on my watch
Bm7 E7
So I can be on time
A7
D
I'm singing love's praises
Dm
E
With sugar-coated rhymes.
By and by,
On you I'm casting my eye.
I'm paintin' the town,
Swingin' my partner around.
Well, I know who I can depend on, I know who to trust
I'm watchin' the roads, I'm studying the dust
I'm paintin' the town
Making my last go round.
C#7
G#7
Well, I'm scuffling, and I'm
shuffling
C#7
A7 G#7
And I'm walking on briars
C#
G#7
I'm not even acquainted
C# G# E7
With my own desires.
I'm rollin' slow,
I'm doing all I know.
I'm telling myself,
I've found true happiness
That I've still got a dream that hasn't been repossessed
I'm rollin' slow
Going where the wild roses grow.
(Instrumental)
Well, the future for me
Is already a thing of the past
You were my first love
And you will be my last.
Papa gone mad,
Mama, she's feeling sad.
Well, I'm gonna baptize you in fire
So you can sin no more
I'm gonna establish my rule
Through civil war
Gonna make you see
Just how loyal and true a man can be.
