CAPO: 4th Fret



[INTRO:] C          F   C F C F C F C F G C
 
[VERSE 1:]

East is east and west is west

And the wrong one I have chose
F                   C       F
Let's go where they keep on wearin'
      C          F           C           F
Those frills and flowers and buttons and bows
C         F          G          C  
Rings and things and buttons and bows


[VERSE 2:]
      
Don't bury me in this prairie

Take me where the cement grows
F                  C        F
Let's move down to some big town
           C      F          C          F
Where they love a gal by the cut of her clothes
    C            F      G          C      C7
And you'll stand out in buttons and bows


[BRIDGE:]
     F
I'll love you in buckskin
                          C
Or skirts that you've homespun
         
But I'll love you longer, stronger where
     D7                   G
Your friends don't tote a gun


[VERSE 3:]
   C
My bones denounce the buckboard bounce

And the cactus hurts my toes
F                   C         F
Let's vamoose where gals keep usin'
      C         F          C          F
Those silks and satins and linen that shows
    C       F        G          C      C7
And I'm all yours in buttons and bows


[INSTRUMENTAL:] F        C        G


[VERSE 4:]
   C
My bones denounce the buckboard bounce

And the cactus hurts my toes
F                   C         F
Let's vamoose where gals keep usin'
      C         F          C          F
Those silks and satins and linen that shows
    C       F        G          C 
And I'm all yours in buttons and bows


[VERSE 5:]
  
Gimme eastern trimmin' where women are women

In high silk hose and peek-a-boo clothes

And French perfume that rocks the room
                     G          C
And I'm all yours in buttons and bows
G           C     G           C
Buttons and bows, buttons and bows
