Barely Gettin By Chords by Bruce Hauser & the Sawmill Creek Band

[Intro]

Dm
 
[Verse]

                      F    
It's a long and dusty trail 
        C            Bb
from my home town in Kansas
      F      C               Dm
For a life I chose few could lead
                 F               
Travelin' with a band and movin' 
C                   Bb
through the western mountains
        F           
We're a fast livin' 
C           Dm
hard lovin' breed
 
[Chorus]

          F              
And we're barely gettin' 
C         Gm             F
there and barely gettin' by
Bb             F           Bb      
Looking for a song in the wind and 
      F          C
the clear blue sky
F              C         Gm             F
Barely gettin' there and barely gettin' by
    Bb                  F          
Our strength is in each other and 
    C                 Gm    Bb
our friends that will stick by

Dm                   F         
Now money don't mean much to me
   C             Bb
 I never have no extra
     F                  C         
Just enough to keep the wolves back 
        Dm
from my door
Dm             F        
Long as God be willin'   
          C 
I'm gonna keep 
         Bb
my horse saddled
          F                      
That will lead me down the trail 
C             Dm
right to your door
 
[Chorus]

          F              C     
And we're barely gettin' there 
    Gm             F
and barely gettin' by
Bb             F           Bb   
Looking for a song in the wind 
          F          C
and the clear blue sky
F              C         
Barely gettin' there and 
Gm             F
barely gettin' by
    Bb                   F        
Our strength is in each other and 
      C                  Gm  Bb
our friends that will stick by
 
[Chorus]

F              C         
Barely gettin' there and 
Gm             F
barely gettin' by
Bb             F           Bb       
Looking for a song in the wind and 
      F          C
the clear blue sky
F              C         
Barely gettin' there and 
Gm             F
barely gettin' by
    Bb                 
Our strength is in   
      F 
each other and    
      C                 Gm   Bb
our friends that will stick by

[Verse]

                      F       
I've seen the sun set on the 
       C        Bb
golden sands of Arizona
         F               C     
Felt the fragrant desert breeze 
          Dm
caress my skin
                F               C   
I marvel at the beauty of those tan
                Bb
 skinned desert ladies
      F              
And I long to hold  
    C           Dm
one close to me again
 
[Chorus]

          F              C      
And we're barely gettin' there 
     Gm            F
and barely gettin' by
Bb             F           Bb      
Looking for a song in the wind and 
      F          C
the clear blue sky
F              C         
Barely gettin' there and 
Gm             F
barely gettin' by
    Bb                   F          
Our strength is in each other 
         C
and our friends 
           Gm   Bb
that will stick by
 
[Outro]
