Capo 4 (or tune down ? step)
E A
From cotton to satin, from Birmingham to Manhattan
E B7
From a pickup to a long limousine
E A
From cotton to satin, from Birmingham to Manhattan
E B7 E
She had to follow her dream
E A E
I saved up enough to buy her one small diamond
E B7
That's the year that old tractor broke down
E A E
And the dream house I promised her still lies by a shade tree
E B7 E
Some old bricks and boards all around
She begged me to take her to see New York city
So I mortgaged the farm and we were gone
But while we were there she took up with a rich man
I came back to the country alone
Key Change
F Bb F
Now, there is the garden where she touched every flower
F C7
There's the meadow where we walked hand in hand
F Bb F
If only she'd waited she'd have more than she dreamed of
F C7 F
For today they struck oil on my land
Up ? step to F#
She went from cotton to satin, from Burmingham to Manhattan
From a pickup to a lonely limousine
From cotton to satin, from Burmingham to Manhattan
She had to follow her dream
She went from cotton to satin
