Next To The Last Romantic

Josh Ritter

 
---------------------------

 G
He's riding the plains living up to his name
 CG
As the next to the last true romantic
 CG
He knows that his story is tragic
 Am
But he can't rest
 D
Til he's next
 G
To you

 G
All the girls know his fame the men curse his name
 CG
And they talk about him like he's magic
 CG
But he's the next to the last true romantic
 Am
And he can't rest
 D
Til he's next
 G
To you

 C
He's stolen hearts like they're horses
 CCCCG
And horses when hearts can't be found
 CCCCD
He keeps riding from one horse to one horse to one horse towns
(It gets him down)

 G
He know's he's a fool to get caught up with you
 CG
But he's the next to the last true romantic
 CG
He can't let go of love once he's had it
 Am
And he can't rest
 D
Til he's next
 G
To you

 C
There's always whiskey and women
 CCCCG
And women and whiskey around
 CCCCD
He can't tell which is worse to be dying of thirst or to drown
(It gets him down)

 G
So he smiles through the pain he pinched Estelle he danced with Jane
 CG
Sometimes even he don't know how he stands it
 CG
But he's the next to the last true romantic
 Am
And he can't rest
 D
Til he's next
 G
To you
 Am
And he can't rest
 D
Til he's next
 G
To you


Am C D G
