Rodeo Chords by Ray Amy
Tuning: Standard
G B7
She comes down to Georgia to dance across my kitchen floor,
Em A
Leavin' black marks on linoleum, a country song on the radio.
G D
I am just a rodeo calf with tender feet and sewn on horns
Em A
And love is a kindness that I've never known before,
C D C
I've never known before.
G B7
She say's "I'm bound to Carolina to join the kids in 'Truth or Dare'."
Em A
And she laughs and says its just a game when I tell her that I'm scared.
G D
I am just a dog waitin' at the kitchen door,
Em A
Love is a kindness that I've never known before,
C D C
I've never known before.
G D
Make it last, make it stay
C Am
Can you hold on long enough to make this pay.
C D C
Just to make it pay.
G B7
She said," My daddy was a grifter and I was in my momma's way,
Em A
So I drifted for a while, because I could not stand to stay."
G D
And she said, "Love is a kindness that I've never understood."
Em A
I said, "I'll give it to you willingly, its something you deserve,
C D C
Its something you deserve."
G D
And I'll make it last, I'll make it stay.
Em A
If you can hold on long enough I can make this pay.
G D
'Cause I am just a calf with tender feet and sewn on horns,
Em A C G
Love is a prize waitin' on her at the rodeo.
