The Chokin Kind

Waylon Jennings


Tom: C

C                                   Dm
I only meant to love you, don't you know it babe
    F                G                  C
Why couldn't you be contented with the love I gave
                                    Dm
I've given you my heart and now you want my mind
      F                G                    C
Your love scares me to death girl, it's the chokin' kind

C                                        Dm    
You can kill a man with bullets, poison or a knife
     F                   G                  C
But it hurts him more to take his pride and run his life
                                Dm        
Whatever it is you want girl I hope you find
         F                G              C              F  G  D
But that hat don't fit my head, it's the chokin' kind
  
D                                       Em
When you fall in love again girl take a tip from me
   G                  A               D
If you don't like the peaches walk on by the tree
                                         Em
Find what you want and keep it, treat it sweet and kind
    G                      A                  D
But let it breathe, don't make your love the chokin' kind...
