Her (D)fingers feel so (G)gentle, with her (D)hand in mine
Her hair feels like (Bm)silk, on my (E)arm (A)

But she (G)loves me and I (D)know she'll save
some (A)borrowed time for (D)me
Verse 2:
I (D)wish that I could (G)have her, more than (D)just a night
We can't go on like (Bm)this, it isn't (E)right (A)

TAG:
But she (G)loves me and I (D)know she'll save

SMOKEY MOUNTAIN MEMORIES
(Earl Thomas Conley)
Recorded by: Mel Street
CHORUS:
[1] Smokey Mountain Memories
[6m] 'Bout my home in Tennessee
[4] Yesterday keeps calling me
[5] Calling me hom-om-ome
[1] Mountains rising in my soul
[6m] Higher than the dreams I've known
[4] Empty eyes - they cling to me, like
[5] Smokey Mountain Mem-o-[1] ries
An old gray [1] man with a dog
Asleep at his feet
Plays a [2m] worn out fiddle
Full of [6m] mel-o-dies
He [1] smiles with his eyes
But the [6m] lines on his face
[2m] Told me as much
As the [5] tunes he [1] played;
Talkin' 'bout my:
Note. Remaining verses have same chords as 1st verse.
[1] Smokey Mountain Mem-o-ries
[6m] Pretty girl's in Tennessee
[4] I was such a fool to leave
[5] Leave her all a-lon-one
[1] Think about her in my dreams
[6m] I wonder if she thinks of me
[4] I always hold her close to me
[5] In my Smokey Mountain Mem-o-[1]-ries
[1] So mister, play your fiddle, please
[6m] Play some mountain mem-o-ries
[4] I've been down a lonely road
[5] So far from ho-om-ome
[1] Nothing left to hold onto
[6m] I made some plans but they fell thru
[4] Now there's nothing left for me
[5]But my Smokey Mountain Mem-o-[1]-ries
[1] Smokey Mountain Memories
[6m] 'Bout my home in Tennessee
[4] Yesterday keeps calling me
[5] Calling me hom-om-ome
[1] Mountains rising in my soul
[6m] Higher than the dreams I've known
F-A-D-E-S...
I Met A Friend Of Yours Today
(Wayland Holyfield/Bob McDill)
Yes I know I'm late getin' home tonight
Can supper wait, I guess I've lost my appetite
Yeah you can fix me a drink oh, anything's okay
Oh by the way I met a friend of yours today
I was workin' on the other side of town
And comin' home I thought I'd stop and have a round
And in this bar I heard someone speak your name
And that's how I met a friend of yours today
I listened for awhile and I could tell
That that stranger he knew you much too well
And I introduced myself and you should have seen his face
Oh what a shame I met a friend of yours today
Please don't cry woman 'cause it's too late for tears
Yeah, I'm sorry too 'cause it hurts after all these years
And ain't it sad a love like ours should end this way
And all because I met a friend of yours today
LOVIN' ON BACK STREETS
Recorded by Mel Street
[D] We try to pick the most unlikely [G] places
[D] Where no one's out to know us by our [A7] name
[D] And for awhile we share the sweet af-[G] fection
That makes it worth the [D] sorrow [A7] and the [D] shame.
[P] Of lovin' on [G] back streets and livin' on [D] Main
Sufferin' hell through the [G] daylignt
For the [E] heaven, darkness [A7] brings
Two hearts in the [G] shadows, tradin' passion for [D] pain
[G] Of lovin' on [D] back streets [A7] and living on [D] Main.
In the mornin' when I face the one who owns me
And she confronts me with some things I can't explain
Then once again I'll hate my self for living
And wonder just how long my mind can stand the strain.
CHORUS
TAG: Lovin' on back streets and living On Main.
