Boy From Tupelo(Cavaco chords)

	        

C                         F 
You don't love me, this I know 
                           C 
Don't need a bible to tell me so 
                           F 
I hung around a little too long 
                       C 
I was good but now I'm gone 

         F 
Like the buffalo 
              C 
That boy from Tupelo 
            G 
Any way the wind can blow 
                 C 
That's where I'm gonna go 
                    F 
I'll be gone like a five and dime 
             C 
It'll be the perfect crime 
                      G 
Just ask the boy from Tupelo 
                     C 
He's the king and he ought to know 

C  F   F  C   C  G   G  C 
Ummmm, Ummmm, Ummmm, Ummmm 

                       F 
The shoulder I've been leaning on 
                               C 
Is the coldest place I've ever known 
                                 F 
There's nothing left for me round here 
                        C 
Looks like it's time to disappear 

         F 
Like the buffalo 
              C 
That boy from Tupelo 
                      G 
That old wall down in Jericho 
                C 
Maybelle on the radio 
                      F 
I'll be gone like the five and dime 
                     C 
It'll be the perfect crime 
                      G 
Just ask the boy from Tupelo 
                     C 
He's the king and he ought to know 

C  F   F  C   C  G   G  C 
Ummmm, Ummmm, Ummmm, Ummmm 

C                       F 
You don't love me, this I know 
                              C 
Don't need a bible to tell me so 
                   F 
It's a shame and a sin 
                        C 
Everything I could have been to you 

                 F 
Your last chance Texaco 
                       C 
Your sweetheart of the rodeo 
                 G 
A Juliet to your Romeo 
                          C 
The border you cross into Mexico 
                      F 
I'll never understand why or how 
                      C 
Oh baby, its too late now 
                      G 
Just ask the boy from Tupelo 
                     C 
He's the king and he ought to know 

C  F   F  C   C  G   G  C 
Ummmm, Ummmm, Ummmm, Ummmm
