Standard (EADGBE)
I've held it all in, Lord knows I've tried
But it's an awful awakening in a country boy's life
To look in the mirror in total surprise
At the hair on my collar and the age in my eyes.
Chorus
Amanda, light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
Amanda, light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
2ND VERSE
It's a measure of people who don't understand
The pleasures of life in a Hillbilly band.
I got my first guitar when I was fourteen
Now I'm pushing 30(?), still wearing jeans.
