Ramblin Jack And Mahan

Now a Ramblin' Jack Elliot said:
             A
I got these lines in my face
           A                                 D
Tryin' to straighten out the wrinkles in my life
        E
When I think of all the fools I've been
        E                                  A
It's a wonder that I've sailed this many miles

         A
To which Larry Mahan replied:
                A
He said, "The sweet bird of youth
                                 D    D
Was sittin' on my shoulder yesterday
           E
But she's always changin' partners
       E                             A   A
And I always knew she'd up and fly away"

D
Stayin' up all night
       D
In the Driskill Hotel
 A
Ramblin' Jack and Mahan
    A
Was cowboyed all to hell
    D
The room smelled like bulls
    D
The words sound like songs
    E
Now there's a pair to draw to boys
                      A
I would not steer you wrong

D  D  A  A  D  D  E  A

        A                   A
So ol' Ramblin' Jack said,
          A
He said, "I recall a time
                               D
I set my soul on fire just for show
       E
All it ever taught me was
    E                                A
The more I learn the less I seem to know"

    A
Ol' Mahan crawled out from behind a couch and said,
E
"Jack, as far as I can see
                             D
Mistakes are only horses in disguise
                E
There ain't no need to ride 'em over
           E                                   A
'Cause we could not ride them different if we tried"

Stayin' up all night

Now there's a pair to draw to boys
