He left me cryin' late one Sunday night outside of Boulder
C2                         C              C2            C              C2                    G  
He said he had to find himself out on the road
                                        F                      G  
I guess when love goes wrong
                                  F                            G  
You gotta learn to be strong
                     F                      C  
So, I worked two jobs
                     F                            C      F  
And I moved three times
          C                    F                      C  
I ended up south of Memphis
     F                                                 G  
Workin' down in Riverside
                             F                                    G  
I may not be so lucky in love
                          F  
But, the one thing I'm sure of
  F                                                            C  
I want a man to stand beside me
F                                                      C  
Not in front of, or behind me
     F                                                                         C              F  
Give me two arms that want to hold me
             C    Am  
Not own me
                             F                                                         G  
And I'll give all the love in my heart
                        C                    F  
Stand beside me
  F                                                 C  
Be true, don't tell lies to me
F                                                            C  
I'm not looking for a fantasy
          F                                                 C  
I want a man to stand beside me
C2                         C                            C2                         C            C2                         C            C2    C  
I didn't expect to see him one hot July morning
C2                         C                            C2                         C            C2                         G  
His hair was longer, but his eyes were the same old blue
                                          F                                            G  
He said, "I've missed you for so long...
                          F  
Oh baby, what can I do?"
I said...
  F                                                            C  
I want a man to stand beside me
F                                                      C  
Not in front of, or behind me
     F                                                                         C         F  
Give me two arms that want to hold me
  C              Am  
Not own me
                             F  
And I'll give all the love in my heart
                                                G      Am                                 F  
Oh, it's hard to tell him no when I want him so bad
                             G                      Am                         F                      G  
But, I've got to be true to my heart this time...
F                                                            C  
I'm not looking for a fantasy
I want a man to stand beside me
