Sweetheart Of The Rodeo Chords & Lyrics - Emmylou Harris

[CHORUS]
[B]I hear the sound of [E]sorrow in the [B]wind
Blowing [E]down from every mile I've ever [B]been
Calling [E]me out on some road that just won't [B]end
Where the sweetheart rides the rodeo [F#]again
A thousand [B]nights a thousand [E]towns I took the [B]bows
There is no compensation for me n[F#]ow
Out a[B]long the highway [E]where the west was [B]won
No matter how fast I [F#]ride or far I [B]run
Waiting [E]for the sweetheart of the [B]rodeo
They're comin' down from Tonopah to Tup[E]elo
She'll come to town to ride the [F#]rad[B]io
Like she's slidin' down the walls of [F#]Jericho
There goes the sweetheart of the rod[B]eo

[B]I stepped into the [E]light you left [B]behind
I stood [E]there where all the world could see me [B]shine
Oh I was [E]on my way to you to make you [B]mine
But I took the longest [F#]road that I could [B]find
Waiting [E]for the sweetheart of the [B]rodeo
They're comin' down from Tonopah to Tup[E]elo
She'll come to town to ride the [F#]rad[B]io
Like she's slidin' down the walls of [F#]Jericho
There goes the sweetheart of the rod[B]eo
