Tonart: E major•
Verse 1
E
I stopped into a roadside bar
E
When I saw a pretty lady
C#m
F#m
B
floating softly across the floor
E
I bravely strode up to her,
A

A
but before I even tried
E
A man tapped on my shoulder,
B
E
said, I see you've met my bride
I stuttered an apology
A
but he said not to fret
E
So I bought it round and so did he
C#m
A
B
and soon our tongues were wet
E
I said I was bound for Lexington
A
E
and I asked about his past
He turned to face me squarely
B
E
and set down his empty glass
He said he'd just come from Lexington
E
And he'd meant to soon return again
C#m
F#
B
but now he'd changed his mind
E
For he had met his true love here
A
And he married her this day
E
He wished me luck in Lexington
B
E
B
And I was on my way
A
I signed for Lexington,
And I found a seat,
C#m
B
and I sat next to a girl with lonely eyes
E
We spoke until the barman
Asus2
A
nearly swept us from the bar
E
And I knew I was in love with her
B
A
E
by the brightness of the stars
So I asked if she would be my girl
E
She said she loved a traveling man
F#
B
Who'd sworn he'd come home soon
E
She faithfully described him
A
And my heart it almost tore
E
Cause I knew he was that groom
I'd met down south a month before
And I asked myself, oh should I speak?
E
Then she will hope forever here
F#
B
And I'll never hope again
E
But I could not break that
young girl's heart
A
So I left her there to pray
Am
E
And now two lonely people
B
Wander Lexington today you
