The Willows - Goodnight Loving Trail Chords

INTRO: C  G  C  G  C

                                         G
You're too old to wrangle or ride on the swing
                              C
You beat the triangle and you curse everything
                             F
If dirt were a kingdom, then you'd be the king
       C         G             C      F
On the Goodnight Trail, on the Loving Trail


CHORUS:
     C                      G
Your old woman's lonesome tonight
     C           G            C           F
Your French harp blows like a low-bawling calf
       C                     G
It's a wonder the wind don't tear off your skin
                              C
Get in there and blow out the light


                                                 G
With your snake oil and herbs and your liniments too
                           C
You can do anything that a doctor can do
                            F
Except find a cure for your own goddamn stew 
       C         G             C      F
On the Goodnight Trail, on the Loving Trail


CHORUS:
     C                      G
Your old woman's lonesome tonight
     C           G            C           F
Your French harp blows like a low-bawling calf
       C                     G
It's a wonder the wind don't tear off your skin
                              C
Get in there and blow out the light

                                                   G
Well, the campfire's gone out and the coffee's all gone
                                C
The boys are all up and they're raising the dawn
                          F
And you're sitting there, lost in a song
       C         G             C      F
On the Goodnight Trail, on the Loving Trail


CHORUS:
     C                      G
Your old woman's lonesome tonight
     C           G            C           F
Your French harp blows like a low-bawling calf
       C                     G
It's a wonder the wind don't tear off your skin
                              C
Get in there and blow out the light

It's a wonder the wind
       Am         C
It's a wonder the wind 
       Am         C      F   C
It's a wonder the wind 


                                   G
Oh, it's someday, I'll be just the same
                   C
Wearing an apron instead of a name
                                      F
There's no one can change it, there's no one to blame
        C                                    G
For the dessert's a book writ in lizards and sage
                     C
Easy to look like an old torn out page
                           F
Faded and cracked with the colours of age
       C         G             C      F
On the Goodnight Trail, on the Loving Trail


CHORUS:

Your French harp blows like a low-bawling calf
       C                     G
It's a wonder the wind don't tear off your skin
                              C
Get in there and blow out the light 
                             G
It's a wonder the wind don't tear off your skin
                              C
Get in there and blow out the light
N.C.                        (G)
It's a wonder the wind don't tear off your skin
                             {C}
Get in there and blow out the light
