Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Sometimes I think what turned her on

 Was my old broke down boots

 She wanted her a real cowboy

 It was a phase she was goin' through

 Not one week after she moved in

 I caught her paintin' the bedroom blue

 Brought home a bottle of pink chablis

 Poured out my best home brew

 I was sittin' on the porch in my overalls

 When she packed her things to leave

 She changed her mind when she couldn't change me

--Chorus

 She changed direction, headed out west

 Changed her tune to some hip-hop mess

 Her dark brown hair went to blonde

 And her pretty blue eyes went to green

 She changed everything when she couldn't change me

--Insrumental-- > G D G

 She was sittin' beside the ocean

 Lookin' out at the waves

 Watchin' how they keep on rollin'

 They always seem the same

 She called and said she'd been thinkin' about

 All those quiet country nights

 And whatever she thought was so wrong with me

 Suddenly seemed alright

 I was sittin' on the porch in my overalls

 When her truck pulled into view

 She said, "I changed my mind when I couldn't change you"

--Chorus Number 2

 She changed direction, headed back home

 She changed her tune, it's all Haggard and Jones

 Had her dark brown hair pulled back

 And the bluest eyes you've ever seen

 She changed everything when she couldn't change me

 She said, "I guess when you love someone

 You just gotta let it be"

 She changed her mind when she couldn't change me

Solo

> G D G D G D G

--Chorus Number 3

 She changed direction, she's back in my arms

 She thought it through, had a change of heart

 She said, "I guess when you love someone

 You just gotta let it be"

 She changed her mind when she couldn't change me

Yeah, yeah

 She changed it all when she couldn't change me

 She couldn't change me
