Give Back My Heart Chords

(ver. 1)
Lyle Lovett
[Verse 1]

D
I'm a traveling man don't tie me down
             G
There's just too much living going all around
  E7                             A7
A man has got to see what he can see
  D
I love the road and I love the air
       G
And I don't worry, hell, I never care
   E7                                A7
I love my women, sometimes they love me


[Verse 2]

         D
But I was got one day, I still don't know how
   G
I didn't even like that town
      E7                                            A7
This fellow said "Stranger why don't you just go on home?"
           D
And I said "Man that's where I'm headed to
        G
And you couldn't stop me if you knew what to do."
       E7                       A7
And I left and I planned to go alone


[Verse 3]

        D
But the road was long and home was far
      G
So I stopped off at this little cowboy-looking bar
  E7                                       A7
I walked on through the door and she just smiled
     D
In a long pony tail and a pretty white dress
          G
She said "Hi,  bull riders do it best."
        E7
I said "Oh my God, what's your name?
           A7
My name's Lyle."


[Chorus]

           D                G
And I said ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman
E7                                 A7
Take your boots and walk out of my life
D                      G
Ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman
E7             A7     D
I can't be no cowgirl paradise


[Verse 4]

  D
I looked at her and she looked at me
      G
And I looked back and she looked back
    E7                          A7
And we went out together for a walk
    D
Her eyes were bright just like the stars
        G
But she drove a pickup said she hated cars
    E7                              A7
But loved to ride around out after dark


[Chorus]

           D                G
And I said ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman
E7                                 A7
Take your boots and walk out of my life
D                      G
Ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman
E7             A7     D
I can't be no cowgirl paradise


[Bridge]

           G                              D
I told her redneckness has got to be a disease
    E7                                    A7
You catch it on your fingers and it just crawls right up your sleeves
D                      G
Ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman
E7             A7     D
I can't be no cowgirl paradise


[Verse 5]

     D
Well how she did it I'll never know
         G
But it's been maybe 20 years or so
        E7                                     A7
And she cooks the supper and I try to pay the rent
           D
But I'm a traveling man don't tie me down
             G
There's just too much living go all around
    E7                                 A7
But I can't figure out quite where it went


[Chorus]

           D                G
And I said ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman
E7                                 A7
Take your boots and walk out of my life
D                      G
Ooh give back my heart chipkicker-redneck woman
E7             A7     D
I can't be no cowgirl paradise
