We’ll sing ourselves sick save our talking for later
[C] [Am] [G]
She was sneaking in the lobby
[F] [C]
Mooching motel coffee

No one dared kicking her out
[C] [Am] [G]
She said “hey where ya heading?

Yeah anywhere’s cool but south.”

Now Betty’s in the band and they’re calling her the man
[Am] [G] [F] [C]
In juke joints, rodeos and neon cathedrals

Don’t hold too tight
[C] [Am7] [G] [F]
That girl was born to fly
[C] [Am] [G] [F] [C]

No sweeter high than to watch her glide

Won’t hide her hard times she let ‘em be seen

[Am] [C] [F] [C]
Like a shooting star, blink and she’s gone
Chorus
