[E] [A]
Hello [D] Fay, I'm glad you [E] called, I know it's [A] been a long while
[F#m] [D] Since I held your [A] soft young body [E] close to me
And [A] I've laid [D] awake so many [E] nights and thought [A] about your warm smile
But [D] Fay, you know there's [A] lots of miles between [D] Las Vegas [E] and the hills [A] of Tennessee
And Fay, I [D] lied to you a [E] little bit out [A] there in Vegas
[D] Cause I'm several [A] years ahead of [E]
32
[F#m] And [A] I said [D] things that led you [E] to believe I [A] had no family
And [D] it's killing [A] me to tell you, [D] but I've got a [E] son that's almost [A] old as you
[C#m] [E] There's 19 years and 1800 [D] miles [A] between us Fay
I [D] could whip the [A] miles in two days [E] driving time
[D] There's 19 [E] years and 1800 [A]
miles [D] between us Fay
[A] But it's not the [D] miles that's bothering [A] my mind
It's not the [E] miles that's bothering [A] my mind
You're 21 [D] and I'm two [E] scoring full of [A] film and vigor
I [D] can rise and [A] shine with each new [E] morning sun
But [F#m] come 20 years I [D] know I'm [E] gonna be a [A] tired old 60
You'll [D] still be [A] young and pretty [D] and reaching [E] for your prime at [A] 41
And when I'm [D] sitting in the [E] shade and thinking [A] of retirement
Your [D] young body [A] will be restless [E] with desire
[A] We'll go to [D] bed and I'll turn my [E] back and sadly [A] whisper goodnight
And [D] grieve myself to [A] death to know that [D] I'm not man enough [E] to quench my [A] woman's fire
[F#m] [E] There's 19 years and 1800 [D] miles [A] between us Fay
I [D] could whip the [A] miles in two days [E] driving time
[D] But the 19 [E] years won't disappear [A] so thanks for [D] calling Fay
[A] I'd rather [D] lose your love than [A] lose my mind
I'd rather [E] lose your love than [A] lose my mind
