Lyle Lovett is an americana singer-songwriter and actor from Klein, Texas, who has been described as "the thinking man's cowboy". While typically associated with the alt-country genre, his albums typically incorporate folk, swing, blues, jazz and gospel music as well as more traditional country & western styles. The Night's Lullaby Songfacts reports that after twenty-six years with Curb, Lyle Lovett released his eleventh and last album for the record label, Release Me, on February 28, 2012.

Farther Down the Line : Lyle Lovett ----------------------------------- Intro : FBb-Bb-FCF-F-C F Let's have a hand for that young cowboy C And wish him better luck next time G And hope we see him up in Fargo C Or somewhere farther down the line
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 : FBb-Bb-FCF-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
