::Verse #1:: F C Bb C Well a note said: "You've had time to think about it. F C Bb C Looks like to me you're feelin' kinda crowded. F C Bb C You're not looking for anything permanent here, F C Bb C so my Rodeo is packed and it's in 'goodbye gear.' " F C Bb C x2 ::Verse #2:: F C Bb C So I shot down to the Longhorn Diner, F C Bb C her sister works there and she'd know where to find her. F C Bb C She said, "You did not hear this from me, F C Bb C all I'll say is momma's got that place out in Monterrey." ::Chorus:: G C D G G C D G Oh, how fast can I go, I gotta catch that little, red Rodeo. G C D G She drove off with my heart, I gotta let her know. G C D G Need the girl in that little, red Rodeo. Em9 D C Texas plates, candy-apple red Rodeo. ::Verse #3:: F C Bb C Two towns back I showed your photograph F C Bb C and the gas-station man just started to laugh. F C Bb C "She said I might see you in this old bucket o' rust, F C Bb C and said 'Good luck boy.' Just follow that cloud o' dust." ::Repeat Chorus:: ::Instrumental Solo:: G C D G x4 ::Bridge:: Am9 G/B C Maybe I was straddlin' the fence just like she said... Bb F C It took her leaving just to get it through my head. ::Verse #4:: F C Bb C She's the one and only, it's over that's it. F C Bb C I'm commited, I'm in love, and I'm desperate. F C Bb C She's a good ways gone, but I'm closin' the gap, F C Bb C if I have to I'll chase her clear across the map. ::Chorus:: ::Chorus::
