Queen Of The Coast by Laura Cantrell
Queen Of The Coast
[Intro]
A D E A
[Verse]
She was the Queen of the Coast back in nineteen sixty five
D
Prettier 'n most, she could keep a room alive
A
With the catch in her voice and the beehive on her head
E
Do you remember anything she ever said
A
Well, some stars fade faster than the rest
D
And the promise wore off though she did her best
A
She finally looked around for somethin' else to do
E
What she found was a man who needed what she knew
[Chorus]
D A
Have you forgotten? Have you forgiven?
E E7 A A7
Tell me are you livin' just a little in your past every day
D A Fm
Time sure has changed you; it's walked right on by you
Bm D E A
Does it satisfy you to have so little to say?
[Verse]
For the next ten years she rode around on the bus
D
She did washin' and ironin' and pickin' up
A
She had a place to stand at the back of the stage
E
She was there every night, lookin' her age
A
She lent her voice, but she gave her heart
D
And, I guess, that must've been the hardest part
A
She figured out exactly what was goin' on
E
All the love she had given for a song
[Bridge]
A Fm
Then things unravelled like they usually do
D E
She got her old heart busted up by husband, number two
[Chorus]
D A
Have you forgotten? Have you forgiven?
D E E7 A A7
Tell me are you livin' just a little in your past every day
D A Fm
Time sure has changed you; it's walked right on by you
Bm D E A D E A
Does it satisfy you to have so little to say?
[Verse]
I'm not quite sure when she got back on the bus
D
But she's still washin' and ironin' and pickin' up
A
If you look all the way to the back of the stage
E
She's standin' at her mic, lookin' her age
A
In a roadstop in Reno at supper time
D
The waitress comes over with a look in her eye
A
Says: "I saw you in Modesto almost thirty years ago
E
"An' I can still remember every song in your show."
[Chorus]
D A
"Please Help Me, I'm Falling." "Don't Come Home A-Drinking."
E E7 A
Well, there's a pair of swingin' doors for every cowboy sweetheart tonight
D A Fm
Time sure has changed you; it's walked right on by you
Bm D E A D E D E
Does it satisfy you to have so little to say?
