Editor's note: I clarified and corrected the Chord Legend, and specified the A and G chords I use.
They may be off a bit, but it works quite nicely this way, and sounds good to me.
Feel free to make improvements as necessary. This is a great song!!!
Keelor specified this as a "country song" which he decided to write, proving once and for all that
you can't categorize all Blue Rodeo music as country.
