Good Man

These chords are old but we shake hands

'Cause I believe that they're the good guys

We can use all the help we can

So many minor chords outside

I fell in love with the sound

Oh I love to sing along with you

We got tunes we kicked around some

We got a bucket that the tunes go through

Babe we both had dry spells

Hard times in bad lands

I'm a good man for ya

I'm a good man

Last night there was a horse in the road

I was twisting in the hairpin

My hands held on my mind let go

And back to you my heart went skipping

I found the inside of the road

Thought about the first time that I met you

All those glances that we stole

Sometimes if you want them then you've got to

Babe we both had dry spells

Hard times in bad lands

I' a good man for ya

I' a good man

They shot a Western south of here

They had him cornered in a canyon

And even his horse had disappeared

They said it got run down by a bad, bad man

You're not a good shot but I'm worse

And there's so much where we ain't been yet

So swing up on this little horse

The only thing we'll hit is sunset

Babe we both had dry spells

Hard times in bad lands

I'm a good man for ya

I'm a good man
