West Canterbury Subdivision Blue Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

[A]I built her a castle of [E]perma ston[A]e
But I should have rei[E]gned more with h[A]er
Too often I le[D]ft my queen alon[A]e
And that was no w[E]ay to leave h[A]er

I r[A]ode out in quest of s[E]ong and wi[A]ne
And that was no w[E]ay to treat h[A]er
I kept her hangi[D]n' like grapes on the vi[A]ne
And that was no w[E]ay to keep h[A]er

Reds G[D]ood guy rode by on his milk white ste[A]ed
And ca[D]sually mentioned my misd[A]eeds
He promised her love far gr[E]eater than mi[A]ne
Thus pulled out and plu[E]cked my grapes from the v[A]ine

I b[A]uilt her a castle [E]with pati[A]os
But I seldom co[E]oked out upon [A]it
I bought her a [D]TV with ster[A]eo
But I never lis[E]tened much to [A]it

N[A]ow I have a castle but the qu[E]een's not hom[A]e
And that is no w[E]ay to have h[A]er
I have the vi[D]ne but the grapes are go[A]ne
And that's no w[E]ay to run a vineya[A]rd

Reds G[D]ood guy rode by on his milk white ste[A]ed
And ca[D]sually mentioned my misd[A]eeds
He promised her love far gr[E]eater than mi[A]ne
Thus pulled out and plu[E]cked my grapes from the v[A]ine
