E7 By and by, A I'm breathing a lover's sigh. Bm7 Well, I'm sitting on my watch E7 So I can be on time A7/G D/F# I'm singing love's praises Dm/F E With sugar-coated rhyme. E7 By and by, A On you I'm casting my eye. E7 I'm paintin' the town, Swingin' my partner around Bm7 Well, I know who I can depend on, E7 I know who to trust A7/G D/F# I'm watchin' the roads, Dm/F E I'm studying the dust E7 I'm paintin' the town A G#7 Making my last go round. Chorus: C#7 G#7 Well, I'm scuffling, and I'm shuffling C#7 A7 G#7 And I'm walking on briars C# G#7 I'm not even acquainted C# G#/A# E7/B E7 with my own desires I'm roamin' slow, I'm doing all I know. I'm telling myself I've found true happiness, That I've still got a dream that hasn't been repossessed. I'm roamin' slow Going where the wild roses grow. Chorus: Well, the future for me Is already a thing of the past You were my first love And you will be my last. Papa gone mad, Mama, she's feeling sad. Well, I'm gonna baptize you in fire So you can sin no more I'm gonna establish my rule Through civil war, Gonn' make you see Just how loyal and true a man can be!
