Missouri Woman

Intro: Dm C Bb Dm C

Dm / / / Dm / / /
She came on fast like a blizzard, moving east from the western sky
C / / / C / / /
The first time I saw her, there were tears in her eyes
Bb / / / Bb / / /
Some cowboy had left her, broken and alone,
Dm / / / C / / /
I reached out and took her hand and held it thru the night

Dm / / / Dm / / /
The dawn came on early her hand was still in mine
C / / / C / / /
Somewhere in the night our hearts became entwined
Bb / / / Bb / / /
I didn?t mean to fall in love, but it seemed I had no choice
Dm / / / C / / /
The woman with her eyes in tears stole my heart and soul

Gm / / / Gm / / / Dm / / / Dm / / /
Missouri woman, I think you showed me
Gm / / / Gm / / / Dm / / / C / / /
Missouri woman, you showed me love, you know you did

Dm / / / Dm / / /
Well a year has come and gone since the last time I saw her
C / / / C / / /
But I still burn inside, like the first night I held her
Bb / / / Bb / / /
Close to my body, my heart is still entwined
Dm / / / C / / /
With the love I felt for her, on that snowy night

Dm / / / Dm / / /
And I just can?t forget her, even though it?s been a year
C / / / C / / /
In my mind I still see her, and my eyes fill with tears
Bb / / / Bb / / /
I know I lost by leaving, but it seemed right at the time
Dm / / / C / / /
I?ve got to go and find that girl, the love I left behind
Gm / / / Gm / / / Dm / / / Dm / / /
Missouri woman, I think you showed me
Gm / / / Gm / / / Dm / / / C / / /
Missouri woman, you showed me love, you know you did


Gm / / / Gm / / / Dm / / / Dm / / /
Missouri woman, I think you showed me
Gm / / / Gm / / / Dm / / / C / / /
Missouri woman, you showed me love, you know you did
