Gene Watson - From Cotton To Satin Chords

Gene Watson

Intro: F-Bb-C

Chorus:
       F                          Bb 
           F                  C
       F                          Bb
     F        C         F     
She had to follow her dream

    F                     Bb                 F
I saved up enough, to buy her, one small diamond
                                         C
That's the year that old tractor, broke down
          F                               Bb
And the dream house I promised her still lies by a shade tree
           F          C          F 
Some old bricks and boards all around

F                              Bb           F
She begged me to take her, to see New York City
                                     C   
So I mortgaged the farm and we were gone
     F                           Bb         F
But while we were there she took up with a rich man
                     C        F    (Walk up & Change Keys C-D)  
I came back, to the country alone

      F                             B             F
Now there is the garden, where she touched every flower
                                           C
There's the meadow where we walked hand in hand
    F                       B                    F   
If only she'd waited, she'd have more than she dreamed of
                      C         F   (Walk up & Change Keys D-E)
For today they struck oil on my land

Repeat Chorus:
       G                          C
        G                     D
       G                          C
     G       D         G  
She had to follow her dream

Tagg:
                Gm
She went from cotton to satin
