C - F - D/F# - G - C
C
I'm gonna tell you this story that I once read,
F
About this cowboy who was a little messed up in the head,
D/F# G
For starters he went by this weirdo name of Odysseus,
C
Now Odysseus weren't no cowboy name,
F
But he sure could play that cowboy game,
D/F# G
He could rope and ride and he could throw a real mean discus.
C
He was headed home from some far-off land,
F
Like Mississippi or Tex-Arkana,
D/F# G
He was trying to get to Ithaca, in New York State,
C
Met this dude named Poseidon that almost drowned him,
F
But this chick named Ino came along and found him?
D/F# G
I didn't really get that part anyway.
C
What I liked is when he met this girl named Circe, you know
F
She was all hot and bothered and ready to go,
D/F# G
She invited all of his friends on over for supper.
C
Turned his buddies into pigs, and that's a fact,
F
So he made love to her and she turned 'em back,
D/F# G C
I guess he was pretty good in the sack or something.
F C G C
Odyss- -eus, why did you have to go?
F C G
Odyss- -eus, what- -ever did you know?
E Am7 C7 F
Odysseus, was hard, Odysseus was fast,
C G C
That cowboy could really kick some ass.
C - F - D/F# - G C - F - D/F# - G - C
C
Well he wasn't really sure which way to head,
F
So for directions he went to the kingdom of the dead,
D/F# G
I ain't sure where that is, but it sounds like Florida.
C
His momma lived there and she said hi,
F
He said no momma, I'm here to see this other guy,
D/F# G
She said well, you're a real find son, then, aren't you?
C
Finally he found this guy that knew the way,
F
He said now listen close to what I gotta say,
D/F# G
It's a long hard ride and you'll probably never even get there.
C
And all your friends they're all gonna die,
F
And all you're gonna wanna do is sit and cry,
D/F# G C
And Odysseus said now, hold up , I make a left where?
C - F - D/F# - G C - F - D/F# - G - C
C
So he packed his bags and he saddled up,
F
And he was headed out of town past this little club,
D/F# G
And from inside he heard this girl band called the Sirens,
C
Well he wanted to stay and hear a few,
F
But his buddies said no, man, we gotta move,
D/F# G
So he threw this big old tantrum but then he got on back to riding.
C
When he got home all of these men were there,
F
Eating all the food from his Frigidaire,
D/F# G
And not just two or three, but like forty- -something.
C
They was hitting on his wife and making a scene,
F
So he killed them all and got away clean,
D/F# G
Didn't even have to do community service or nothing.
C
His wife said I been so faithful babe,
F D/F# G
And he said uh?. uh?. me too.
C
Except for that girl in that cave and a couple more,
F
And that beautiful woman on that island shore?
D/F#
For like two years?.
D/F# G C
Anyways, baby, I been so faithful in my heart
