A  C#m D E A			 
 
 A 
Well I met her waiting tables in a coffee shop 
 
One dark and lonely day 
F#m 
And I never would a thought in a million years 
D 
That I could fall this way 
E	              A 
It?s funny how fate can fool ya 
D	                A 
Just when you?re giving up 
                   E              A 
She said hello how are ya 
F#m	         E 
Then she filled my cup 
 
 
                       F#m  D                 A             
And it was goodbye yesterdays heartache 
     F#m  D                E 
So long to be born to lose 
                F#m  D            A                D 
Cause now I?ve found the right way 
                   Bm           D          E                A	C#m  D E 
It?s been a hard luck road to a love long overdue 
 
A 
Now her face was like an angel and her legs were long 
 
And when she looked at me 
  F#m 
I knew that somewhere down in my deep blue soul 
D 
This was meant to be 
E		 A 
I asked her whatcha doin later 
   D	          A 
She said I?m free at five 
  E		A 
I picked up the check to pay her 
	  D	     E 
And she said you better be on time 
 
                 F#m  D                 A             
And it was goodbye yesterdays heartache 
     F#m  D                E 
So long to be born to lose 
                F#m  D            A                D 
Cause now I?ve found the right way 
                   Bm           D          E                A	C#m  D E 
It?s been a hard luck road to a love long overdue 
 
 
A 
Then right underneath all the Texas stars 
 
She took my pain away 
    F#m 
And as I held her close in my trembling arms 
D 
I knew my world had changed 
E	          A 
Told her that I was a rambler 
               D	      A 
She said yes I know 
  E		A 
But when I looked in those big brown eyes 
D	            E 
Well that was all she wrote 
 
                 F#m  D                 A             
And it was goodbye yesterdays heartache 
     F#m  D                E 
So long to be born to lose 
                F#m  D            A                D 
Cause now I?ve found the right way 
                   Bm           D          E                A	C#m  D E 
It?s been a hard luck road to a love long overdue 
	 
 Bm           D          E                A
