Loves Been Good To Me

Tom: Em

              Am
I have been a rover,
D             G      Em7/C    G
I have walked alone.
                Am
Hiked a hundred highways,
D             G      G/F#    Em
never found a home.
Em               Bm
Still in all I'm happy,
C                  Cm
the reason is, you see
G         Am    C         Cm
Once in a while along the way,
G           D       G
Love's been good to me.


            Am      D
There was a girl in Denver,
Am         D      G      G/F#    Em
before the summer storms.
Em                Bm
Oh, her eyes were tender,
C                 D
oh, her arms were warm.
               G      G/F#    Em      G7
And she could smile away the thunder,
C             Cm
Kiss away the rain,
G         Am          C    Cm
And even though she's gone away,
     G         D       G
you won't hear me complain


              Am
I have been a rover,
D             G      Em7/C    G

            Am      D
There was a girl in Portland,
Am         D      G      G/F#    Em
before the winter chill.
Em             Bm
We used to go a'courtin'
C             D
Along October hill.
              G     G/F#     Em      G7
And she could laugh away the dark clouds,
C            D
cry away the snow,
G             Am    C    Cm
it seems like only yesterday
G           D      G
as down the road I go.
