Intro
[C#m] [A]
[E] [B7] [E]
Verse 1
I [E]still recall the [B7]morning that I [E]met you
Standing [A]out in front of Wilson's five and [E]dime
Staring through the [B7]window at the [E]jewelry
[F#7]Hungry for the things you couldn't [B7]buy
Just [E]like a fool I [B7]thought that I could [E]please you
I saw you had an [E7]eye for things that [A]shine
I paid seven sawmill dollars for a [E]bracelet
Just to satisfy your [B7]fourteen carat [E]mind
Chorus
[C#m]Laying by these railroad tracks in [A]Denver
With a [E]hurting head and a half a pint of [B7]wine
[C#m]Everything except my soul has been [A]surrendered
Just to [E]satisfy your [B7]fourteen carat [E]mind

Verse 2
The [E]cabin that I [B7]built in West [E]Virginia
Was [A]not enough to keep you [E]satisfied
'cause a man that's got a [B7]sawmill [E]occupation
Can't [F#7]afford to feed a rich girl's [B7]appetite
I [E]wonder if you're [B7]still with Willie [E]Jackson
Sometimes I wonder [E7]if he's still [A]alive
Ol' Willie, he gave up his wife and [E]children
Just to satisfy your [B7]fourteen carat [E]mind
Chorus
[C#m]Laying by these railroad tracks in [A]Denver
With a [E]hurting head and a half a pint of [B7]wine
