Heartland Heartbreak

INTRO:A,D,E,A VERSE: A I saved some dough and bought a ranch D Yeah I've been livin' on her ever since E I fell in love with a golden morning A Say, how ya doing, got a lot of friends VERSE: Yeah I got myself a sheppard cross She had pups and I kept them all Me and my barn dogs Waiting on the woman with the right touch VERSE: She comes along and I fall in love Yeah, I loved her like a country song Country songs don't last that long Before I knew it she was gone CHORUS: A She was my heartland heartbreak D My pretty little mistake E She left me down by the cold lake A Now she's driving my truck away My sweet little '58 D I tried to stop her but was too late E She left me holding my tail gate A Sometimes I don't know my own strength BREAK:A,D,E,A VERSE: Well I got a job at the local bar Every Friday picking my guitar She walked in she saw a western star I saw my chance to have a good March VERSE: Well that month turned into a year Yeah we threw her into second gear Country living and a lot of free beer I guess one day she had it up to here CHORUS: BREAK:A,D,E,A VERSE: Well now my well was dry And the money hounds could smell a good buy Well I wasn't selling her for any price No and that took a toll on my love life VERSE: See she wanted me to sell it all Move to the city and get a real job Well I told her I would rather go to hell She told me she rather I go by myself CHORUS: OUTRO:A,D,E,A
