Capo 1
[G]
He's r[G]iding the plains living up to his name
As the n[C]ext to the last true roma[G]ntic
He k[C]nows that his story is tr[G]agic
But he can't r[Am]est
Til he's n[D]ext
To y[G]ou
All the [G]girls know his fame the men curse his name
And they t[C]alk about him like he's m[G]agic
But he's the n[C]ext to the last true rom[G]antic
And he can't [Am]rest
Til he's [D]next
To [G]you
He's stolen [C]hearts like they're horses
And [C]hor[C]ses when [C]hearts [C]can't be [G]found
He keeps r[C]iding from one horse to [C]one horse to [C]one [C]horse [D]towns
(It gets him down)
He kn[G]ow's he's a fool to get caught up with you
But he's the n[C]ext to the last true rom[G]antic
He can't l[C]et go of love once he's h[G]ad it
And he can't r[Am]est
Til he's n[D]ext
To y[G]ou
There's always whi[C]skey and women
And [C]wom[C]en and [C]whis[C]key [G]around
He can't t[C]ell which is worse to be dy[C]ing of th[C]irst o[C]r to dro[D]wn
(It gets him down)
So he sm[G]iles through the pain he pinched Estelle he danced with Jane
Sometimes e[C]ven he don't know how he s[G]tands it
But he's the n[C]ext to the last true rom[G]antic
And he can't r[Am]est
Til he's n[D]ext
To y[G]ou
And he can't [Am]rest
Til he's n[D]ext
To y[G]ou
