G F I could call a car or we can walk down the avenue I wrote a song for you C About that spot in Ireland, you got on the table when Am That man played his sad songs for me and all my drunken friends G You danced there and I did too F That night, I wrote a song for you C And you remind me of some old timey photo that I saw Am In the doorway on a long day, in your black-lace bra G Started writin' when I met you, I'll be writin' when I die F This song for youVerso 1:
Am G C F I heard you told your daddy 'bout some boy in the city Am G C F 'He's Oklahoma trash, but he's real kind with me' Am G C F Does a boy get tired of playin' those tunes Am G C But I wrote this song for youC Am G FAm Deep within my lower spine, I see you drinkin' summer wine C At a venue out in Dublin, back when I said nothin' G Wish I'd said then the things I'm thinkin' now F I wrote a song for you C And all these people tellin' me I ain't what I used to be Am But you've known me since I was naive and twenty-three G I could give a shit about what these people say I am F I wrote a song for you C An`d I feel like a kid again when you start askin' questions Am About my mama, Oklahoma, or the way I'm sleepin' G When they took the boy you knew, sold him for profit F I had you in my arms last night, but I lost it C Am G FVerso 2:
Am G C F I heard you told your daddy 'bout some boy in the city Am G C F 'He's Oklahoma trash, but he's real kind with me' Am G C F Does a boy get tired of playin' those tunes Am G C But I wrote this one for you Am G C Yeah, I wrote this one for youC Am G F Outro C Maybe you'll move on, do somethin' different Am Find yourself a sober man who golfs and is Christian G But in everything I say and in everything I do F I wrote this song for you
