He died with his boots on

G
Dm
He talked of a girl he'd known long ago
Am
His eyes welled with tears
G
when he tried to explain
How the sound of her voice
Dm
had made him feel whole
Am
And the smell of her skin,
F
G
like sage after rain
C

when he bought us some beer
Am
F
A six -pack if he could have two
C
G
He said, come back to my place
Dm
you can drink it there safe
Am
don't worry it's cool
G

She was killed in the wreck

He told me about it one

Some people said it'd help

He said that made less

than no difference at all.
G
He'd talk of her beauty,
Dm
her ice and her fire.

He'd smile when he'd
call her broad
But there was always respect,
