D A Dmaj7 D
tell me a story ’bout a fella with a crazy dream
D A Dmaj7 D
everybody tells him that it won’t amount to anything
Bm F#m
he fires the shot heard around the world
G D
he wins the prize and gets the girl
D A Dmaj7 D
that’s the kind of story i like the kind that makes you think

D A Dmaj7 D
sing me a song about a cowboy with an achin’ heart
D A Dmaj7 D
ridin’ along the lonesome prairie ’bout to fall apart
Bm F#m
every time those doggies moan
G D
he doesn’t feel so all alone
D A Dmaj7 D
that’s the kind of song that i like the kind that breaks your heart

solo ( just repeat chords here )
D A Dmaj D
paint me a picture of a girl with a secret smile
D A Dmaj7 D
lookin’ back at ya ’cross the years through ancient eyes
Bm F#m
you’re standin’ there like an open door
G D
’cause she’s seen it all before
D A Dmaj7 D
that’s the kind of picture i like the kind that makes you sigh
