Farther Down The Line

Capo 2  
 
             A7                  D 
Let's have a hand for that young cowboy 
                              A 
And wish him better luck next time 
                             E7 
And hope we'll see him up in Fargo 
                              A 
Or somewhere farther down the line 
  
This time he sure drew a bad one 
One that nobody could ride 
But by the way he pulled his hat on  
You knew he'd be there for the fight 
 
             A7            D        G G D 
And it's the classic contradiction 
                 A          D D A 
The unavoidable affliction 
                            E7  
Well, it don't take much to predict, son 
                  A 
The way it always goes 
                       D          G G D 
One day she?ll say she loves you 
                             A       D D A 
And the next she'll be tired of you 
                           E7 
And push'll always come to shove you 
                     A  
On that midnight rodeo  
 
 
He almost made it to the buzzer 
Somehow he gave up in the end 
He put one hand around the other 
and let that pick-up man on in 
And it was his last chance to ride it 
Now now he'll have to move along 
But he knows back in his mind that 
He won't be away for long 
 
 
Chorus 
 
 
So let's have a hand for that young cowboy 
And wish him better luck next time 
I hope we'll see him up in Fargo 
Or somewhere farther down the line
