                  SHE CAME FROM FORT WORTH       Kathy Mattea

  

  

                            Bb               Gm                      Eb   F

  CHORUS:    She came from Fort Worth (but) Fort Worth couldn't hold her

                   Bb    Gm              Eb     F

  Her dreams were bigger than the Texas sky

                   Bb  Eb           Bb             Gm

  She's got a one-way ticket on the next bus for Boulder

          Eb         F             Bb

  And it won't take long to say goodbye

  

           Eb           F     Eb         Bb

  She was workin' at a diner just a week ago

         Gm          Bb      Eb              F 

  When a man from Colorado smiled and said hello

           Bb                   Gm             Eb           Bb

  And he turned her head with stories about a cabin in the trees

             Gm                Eb          Bb                          F

  Where the wind can sing you love songs beneath snow-capped mountain peaks

             Eb                F              Eb             Bb

  Now she's packed her faded jeans and her favorite cowboy boots

            Gm           Bb           Eb          F

  Left her apron at the diner for someone else to use

            Bb           Gm           Eb              Bb

  One last look in the mirror at the girl she used to be

             Gm               Eb             Bb              F

  Then the driver takes her ticket and she tries to fall asleep

  

  repeat chorus

         Eb              F                  Eb            Bb

  And somewhere in the long dark night the snow began to fall

           Gm                   Bb                    Eb               F

  Oh, the world outside was sparkling white when she heard the driver call

      Bb                  Gm         Eb              Bb

  "Everyone off now for Boulder and have a real nice day"

           Gm              Eb        Bb                      F

  He was waitin' on the platform and he raised his hand to wave 

             Eb          F            Eb                Bb

  And she offered no resistance as he took her to his cabin

            Gm              Eb     Bb                         F

  And that diner in the distance seemed just like it never happened.

  

  repeat chorus  then last two lines of chorus
