Аккорды Waylon Jennings - Old Timer (The Song)

Verse 1:
         D       A
 I grew up in Wyoming
                                 D
 In and around Jackson's hole
                   A
 In the shadows of the Tetons
 Where summers are hot
                                D
 And winters unbearably cold
                 G
 But the Spring and the Fall
                                  D
 Are always as good as it gets
                 A
 For over 70 years now
                                   D
 I'd watch the sun rise and set


Verse 2:
                A
 I've been a cowboy
                                    D
 Working the round-ups in spring
                A
 I've lived in the mountains
 Hunted the grizzly
                                   D
 Trapping the rivers and streams
            G
 Always the loner
                                       D
 I've treasured my freedom the most
                   A
 And though i never married
                                           D
 As a young man i might have come close


Verse 3:
          G
 From somewhere back east
 She came to the valley
                D
 With a man who did her no good
                G
 He was fast with the ladies
 A tin horn gambler
        D
 And a cheat whenever he could
               G
 She had no friends or family
                                 D
 Most of the time he was gone
            A
 He died in a card game
                                    D
 And she found herself all alone


Verse 4:
          G
 Alone and afraid and left unprotected
                D
 'Cause he was all that she had
           G
 Maybe i should have
 But i never told her
              D
 So she never knew he was bad
            G
 But i'll always remember
                                  D
 Standing and watching her cry
                  A
 There was no one to help her
                                 D
 But i was determined to try


Verse 5:
             A
 I mended her fences and
 Fixed up her cabin
                                  D
 I had everything looking good
            A
 I laid by her food
 And wood for the winter
                            D
 Helping wherever i could
             G
 The more i was around her
                             D
 The more i wanted to be
                 A
 There was something about her
                                        D
 That brought out a good side of me


Verse 6:
           G
 I went into town, i brought a new outfit
             D
 I got me a haircut and shave
             G
 I'd trek through the snow
 For no good reason
                D
 Just to go by her cabin each day
                G
 I don't know about love
                                        D
 But i was quite taken in by it all
                A
 Till her brother came in the Spring
                                     D
 And he took her back to St. Paul


Verse 7:
                A
 I don't go down to Jackson
                                            D
 Ain't nothing there but motels and bars
              A
 Too damn many tourists
 No place to hide
                                       D
 They'll find you wherever you are
                        G
 They like to call me old timer
                               D
 I am getting older i guess
                A
 But i don't like the changes
                                        D
 'Cause i've seen it all at its best


Verse 8:
                 A
 When my life is over
                                    D
 I don't want to be left in town
             A
 But up in the mountains
 There is a place
                                          D
 I've marked off my own piece of ground
           G
 High in the Tetons
                               D
 Above and away from it all
                A
 From the top of old Grand
 I bet on a clear day - you can see
                            D
 All the way to St. Paul
