69 Love Songs

[Verse 1]
G           G/F#             Em         Em7
I like your twisted point of view, Mike  
C           C/B              Am7    D
I like your questioning eyebrows 
G              G/F#              Em       Em7
You've made it pretty clear what you like 
C         C/B              Am7    D
It's only fair to tell you now  

[Verse 2]
Em           Em7          C       C/B
that I leave early in the morning 
Am7                      D        Dsus  D
and I won't be back till next year  
Em         Em7            C      C/B
I see that kiss-me pucker forming  
Am7                                 D     Dsus  D
but maybe you should plug it with a beer, cause 

[Chorus]
G          G/F#    C                      G          
Papa was a rodeo - Mama was a rock'n'roll band                
        G               G/F#         C                    D            
I could play guitar and rope a steer before I learned to stand  
G                      G/F#         C                     G
Home was anywhere with diesel gas - Love was a trucker's hand  
G                  G/F#              C         D     
Never stuck around long enough for a one night stand 
Am7                           G
Before you kiss me you should know 
C    D         G
Papa was a rodeo 

[Bridge]
G G/F# Em Em7 C D Dsus D

[Verse 3]
G           G/F#             Em         Em7
The light reflecting off the mirror ball 
C           C/B              Am7    D
looks like a thousand swirling eyes 
G              G/F#              Em       Em7
They make me think I shouldn't be here at all 
C         C/B              Am7    D
You know, every minute someone dies 

[Verse 4]
Em           Em7          C       C/B
What are we doing in this dive bar 
Am7                             D  Dsus  D
How can you live in a place like this 
Em            Em7           C     C/B
Why don't you just get into my car 
Am7                                    D   Dsus  D
and I'll take you away I'll take that kiss now, but 

[Chorus]
G          G/F#    C                      G          
Papa was a rodeo - Mama was a rock'n'roll band                
        G               G/F#         C                    D            
I could play guitar and rope a steer before I learned to stand  
G                      G/F#         C                     G
Home was anywhere with diesel gas - Love was a trucker's hand  
G                  G/F#              C         D     
Never stuck around long enough for a one night stand 
Am7                           G
Before you kiss me you should know 
C    D         G
Papa was a rodeo

[Verse 5]
Em       Em7          C       C/B
And now it's 55 years later 
Am7                         D      Dsus  D
We've had the romance of the century 
Em         Em7                C      C/B
After all these years wrestling gators 
Am7                                    D          Dsus     D
I still feel like crying when I think of what you said to me 

[Chorus]
G          G/F#    C                      G          
Papa was a rodeo - Mama was a rock'n'roll band                
        G               G/F#         C                    D            
I could play guitar and rope a steer before I learned to stand  
G                      G/F#         C                     G
Home was anywhere with diesel gas - Love was a trucker's hand  
G                  G/F#              C         D     
Never stuck around long enough for a one night stand 
Am7                           G
Before you kiss me you should know 
C    D         G
Papa was a rodeo 

[Outro]
Em7       D               C         D     G
What a coincidence, your Papa was a rodeo too.
