CAPO III



Intro:  D / / F#m / / Bm / / A / / D / / F#m / / Bm / / A / /

(The beat is one-two-three, one-two-three; tap your foot).


    D             F#m                Bm            A        Em   A  Em  A
Two broken hearts lonely looking like houses where nobody lives...

    G             Em             G             A          D     F#m  Bm  A
Two people each having so much pride inside neither side forgives...

   C            Am        C          D              G        Em  Bm  Em
The angry words spoken in haste such a waste of two lives...


     A         A7            A                Em              A 
It's my belief pride is the chief cause in the decline in the number of 

 A7            D   F#m  Bm  A
husbands and wives



  D
A woman and a man,  A man and a woman

G                 A                D   F#m  Bm  A
Some can and some can't and some can't


Em / / F#m / / Em / / Bm  G  Em  A / / / / /



Repeat 1st verse, then repeat intro to finish.

*Got in the mood to play this song because of tonight's Reba and Brooks & Dunn
concert.  Wish more country bands would come to California on tour...
