[Verse]

         G
Well my Daddy played old records
      C              G
Mama sang us all to sleep
                              D
I loved to watch that needle move
 
     C                G
Sometimes I'd ask my Dad
      D              Em
What made him all so sad
C                              D
  And drove a man to sing the Blues
 
 
[Chorus]

Em7         D                
   Tell us tall tales about 
 C                 G
cowboys and their guns
Em7       D                C  C
   'Bout how the West was won
 
Em               D               
  Never told us why blues eyes 
     C             G
was crying in the rain
Em7                D            C  C
Or why he stopped loving her today
Em            D               
And he never mentioned, when 
     C                G
he bought my first guitar
 
Em7                 D                G
 I would need something to break my heart
 

[Verse]

         G
Well my daughter 

found them records
       C              
Oh 'n Lord you should  
          G
hear her sing
                          D    D
Crazy, or anything Patsy Cline
 
Em               D      
  Tell her tall tales 
       C              G
about outlaws on the run
Em       D               C   C   Em
  About how her mom was won
 
           D         
She don't know that 
 C                    G
Dolly doesn't like Jolene
Em     D                   C   C
  Oh, why you gotta be so mean
Em              D                
And I want the first time that 
     C                     G
the world breaks her heart
Em           D               G   G
  Is when I leave her my guitar
