A D A I built her a castle of perma stone G A But I should have reigned more with her D A Too often I left my queen alone G A And that was no way to leave her I rode out in quest of song and wine And that was no way to treat her I kept her hanging like grapes on the vine And that was no way to keep her Chorus: E B E Reds Good guy rode by on his milk white steed B E And casually mentioned my misdeeds B E He promised her love far greater than mine A B E Thus pulled out and plucked my grapes from the vine I built her a castle with patios But I seldom cooked out upon it I bought her a TV with stereo But I never listened much to it Now I have a castle but the queen's not home And that is no way to have her I have the vine but the grapes are gone And that's no way to run a vineyard Chorus You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  D  E  G  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
