Fast As You
Dwight Yoakam

INTRO: (E Riff 8x)
 
E
Maybe someday I'll be strong, maybe it won't be long
A                            E
I'll be the one who's tough, you'll be the one who's got it rough
F#                   A                     E
It won't be long and maybe I'll be real strong
 
E
Maybe I'll do things right, maybe I'll start tonight
A                            E
You'll learn to cry like me, baby let's just wait and see
F#                    A                  E
Maybe I'll start tonight and do things right
 
CHORUS 
A                                                    E
You'll control me and oh so boldly rule me 'till I'm free
          A                                                     B
'Till the pain that shakes me finally makes me get up off of my knees
B     A     G#m    F#m
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 
E                           
Maybe I'll be fast as you, maybe I'll break hearts too
A                                      E
But I think that you'll slow down when your turn to hurt comes around
F#                          A              E
Maybe I'll break hearts and be as fast as you...     awwwww...
