My Elusive Dreams

Intro:  D

D                                G
You followed me to Texas,
A7                            D
You followed me to Utah.
                                 G                A7
We didn't find it there, so we moved on
D                                 G
You went with me to Alabam',
A7                                         D
Things looked good in Birmingham.
                              G                A7
We didn't find it there, so we moved on.

                D                  G
I know you're tired of following
A7                   D
My elusive dreams and schemes.
G                             D
For their only fleeting things.
A7                    D
My elusive dreams.

D                                  G
You had my child in Memphis,
A7                              D
I heard of work in Nashville.
                          G                A7
We didn't find it there, so we moved on.
D                                 G
To a small farm in Nebraska,
A7                           D
To a gold mine in Alaska.
                                G                  A7
We didn't find it there, so we moved on.

D                       G
Now we've left Alaska
A7                                         D
'cause there was no gold mine.
                                   G          A7
But this time only two of us moved on.

Spoken:

D                                     G
Now all we have is each other
A7                   D
And a little to cling to.
                                       G           A7
And still you won't let me go, go on alone.
