Amanda by Waylon Jennings [3/4 time]

Amanda   by Waylon Jennings  [3/4 time]
 
C                       F               C
I've held it all inward Lord knows I've tried
                                 G7            C
But it's an awful awakening in a country boy's life
                         F        C
To look in the mirror in total surprise
                                      G7          C
At the hair on your shoulders and the age in your eyes 
 
       F           C
Amanda light of my life
                            G7          C
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
       F           C
Amanda light of my life 
                            G7          C
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
 
                             F          C
It's a measure of people who don't understand
                           G7        C
The pleasures of life in a hillbilly band
                      F             C
I got my first guitar when I was fourteen 
                        G7            C
Now I'm crowding 30 and still wearing jeans
 
       F           C
Amanda light of my life
                            G7          C
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
       F           C
Amanda light of my life 
                            G7          C

Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
