	F	Em	G7
And	she was a	lady I	say

	C	F	G	C
But	she met a	cowboy who	rode on a	rodeo

	F	G	C
And	he stole her	heart straight	away

	C	F	G	C
The	New Jersey	lady she	loved him so	true

	F	Em	G7
An	other love	she never	had

	C	F	G	C
But	cowboys are	lonesome and	cowboys are	blue

	F	G	C
And	they make the	ladies so	sad

	F	C
Chorus:	Sing me a	melody

	F	C
	Sing me a	blues

	F	C	G	C
	Walk through the	bottomland	without no	shoes

	F	C
	The Brazos she's	running scared

	F	C
	She heard the	news

	F	C	G	C
	Walk through the	bottomland	without no	shoes

	C	F	G	C
The	New Jersey	lady knew	he loved her	too

	F	Em	G7
And you	know she	tried to hold	on

	C	F	G	C
But the	rodeo	life was the	life that he	knew

	F	G	C
He	had to keep	drifting a	long

	C	F	G	C
	She never	married and	she never	would

	F	Em	G7
And	all of the	people they'd	say

	C	F	G	C
The	New Jersey	lady she	just ain't no	good

	F	G	C
To	follow a	cowboy that	way

Chorus

	F	C	G	C
The	lady she'd	sing him to	sleep in the	night

	F	Em	G
And	in the	morning he'd	go

	F	C	G	C
	She loved the	darkness and	hated the	light

	D	G
	Along with that damn rode	o

	C	F	G	C
The	New Jersey	lady the	day that he	died

	F	Em	G7
She	covered him	over with	clay

	C	F	G	C
And	feeling the	wind in the	night as she	cried

	F	G	C
	She heard the	old cowboy	say

Chorus
