Written by Dwight Yoakam
A E Girl you taught me how to hurt real bad and cry myself to sleep, A Showed me how this town can shatter dreams. E Another lesson 'bout a naive fool, who came to Babylon A And found out that the pie don't taste so sweet. ~~~~~~ Chorus ~~~~~~ A E Oh its guitars, cadillacs, hillbilly music. A Lonely, lonely streets that I call home. E Oh its guitars, cadillacs, and hillbilly music A Its the only thing that keeps me hanging on. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Instrumental 1 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~ Verse 2 ~~~~~~~ A E There ain't no glamour in this tinsel land of lost and wasted lives A And painful scars are all thats left of me. E Oughta thank you girl, for teaching me brand new ways to be cruel A I've found them out now I guess I'll just leave. ~~~~~~ Chorus ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lead guitar solo ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~ Chorus ~~~~~~ E A Its the only thing that keeps me hanging on (x2) ~~~~~~~~~~ Lead outro ~~~~~~~~~~ *********************************************************************** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~hide this tabLead guitar intro ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ E--------------------------------------------- B--------------------------------------------- G--------------------------------------------- D---------2-2------2-2-----2-2-----2-2-------- A------2-4---4-2------4-2-----4-2-----5-2b2-0- E-0-2/4---------3b-------3b------3b----------- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Instrumental 1 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ E---------------------------------------------------------- B---------------------------------------------------------- G------2---2-2-----2-2------------------------------------- D-2-2/4-4-2---4-2-----4-2--2-2--------------2-2-----2-2---- A----------------3b------3b---4-2--------2-4---4-2-----4-2- E--------------------------------3b-0-2/4---------3b------- E------------------------------ B----8------------------------- G-7/9-9\7-5-7-5---------------- D--------------5/7-7\4-2-4----- A-------------------------3b-0- E------------------------------ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lead guitar solo ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ E-----------5-7-9--9-7-5--12-14-16-16--16--16--16--16-14- B--2-3-4/5----------------------------------------------- G-2-4-5-/6--6-7-9b-9-7-6--13-14-16-16b-16b-16--16b-16-14- D-------------------------------------------------------- A-------------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------- E-----------------12----------------------------- B-12---------------------10-10------------------- G---14\13-------9-------------------------------- D--------14\11-9-9--11br9-----9br7-7------------- A---------------------------------9-9\7---------- E--------------------------------------7b7-7b7-5- ~~~~~~~~~~ Lead outro ~~~~~~~~~~ E-------------------------- B-------------------------- G-2-2-----2-2-2------------ D----4-2-----4--2-2-------- A-------3b---------5-2b2-0- E--------------------------
