Farther Down the Line : Lyle Lovett

Intro

F A♯ A♯ F C F F C

 Let's have a hand for that young Fcowboy

 And wish him better luck next tCime

 And hope we see him up in GFargo

 Or somewhere farther down the lCine

This time he sure drew a bad one

One that nobody could ride

But by the way he pulled his hat on

You knew he'd be there for the fight

And it's the classic contradiction (Bb-Bb-F)

The unavoidable affliction

Well, it don't take much to predict, son

The way it always goes

'Cuz one day she says she loves you (Bb-Bb-F)

And the next she'll be tired of you

And push'll always come to shove you

On that midnight rodeo

Solo

F A♯ A♯ F C F F C

He almost made it to the buzzer

Somehow he gave up in the end

They put one hand around the other

And let that pick-up man hone in

And it was his last chance to ride her

And now he'll have to move along

But he knows back in his mind

He won't be away for long

And it's the classic contradiction

The unavoidable affliction

Well, it don't take much to predict, son

The way it always goes

'Cuz one day she says she loves you

And the next she'll be tired of you

And push'll always come to shove you

On that midnight rodeo

Let's have a hand for that young cowboy (Bb-Bb-F)

And wish him better luck next time

And hope we see him up in Fargo

Or somewhere farther down the line End : Bb-Am-C
