[Verse 1]
D Bm
East is east and west is west
D
And the wrong one I have chose
G Em
Let's go where I'll keep on wearin'
D
Those frills and flowers and buttons and bows
A D
Rings and things and buttons and bows
[Verse 2]
D Bm
Don't bury me on the lone prairie
D
Take me where the cement grows
G D Em
Let's move down to some big town
D
Where they love a gal by the cut o' her clothes
A D
And I'll stand out in buttons and bows
[Chorus]
G
I'll love you in buckskin
D
Or skirts that you've homespun
D
But I'll love ya' longer, stronger where
E A
Yer friends don't tote a gun
D
My bones denounce the buckboard bounce
D
And the cactus hurts my toes
G Em
Let's vamoose where gals keep usin'
D G
Those silks and satins and linen that shows
A D
And I'm all yours in buttons and bows
[Instrumental]
D G D G Em G A D X2
[Chorus]
G
I'll love you in buckskin
D
Or skirts that you've homespun
D
But I'll love ya' longer, stronger where
E A
Yer friends don't tote a gun
D
My bones denounce the buckboard bounce
D
And the cactus hurts my toes
G Em
Let's vamoose where gals keep usin'
D G
Those silks and satins and linen that shows
A D
And I'm all yours in buttons and bows
A D
Gimme eastern trimmin' where women are women
A D
High silk hose and peek-a-boo clothes
A D
And French perfume that rocks the room
A D
And you're all mine in buttons and bows
A D
Buttons and bows
A D
Buttons and bows
A D
Buttons and bows
