Two Girls
Townes Van Zandt / Townes Van Zandt: Live at the Old Quarter
| C | Dm | G | F | C |
The | clouds didn't look like | cotton, They didn't | even | look like | clouds. |
| Dm | G | F | C |
I was underneath the | weather, And my | friends looked | like a | crowd. |
| Am | C | F | C |
The | swimmin' hole was | full of rum, I | tried to find out | why. |
| Dm | G | F | C |
All I learned, my | friend, Is you've got to | swim be | fore you | fly. |
| F | C | Am | C |
I've got | two | girls - one's in | heaven, one's | below. |
| Dm | G | F | C |
One I love with all my | heart, And | one I | do not | know. |
Two lonesome dudes on an ugly horse - Passed by not long ago. | |
They asked me where the action was, I said I did not know. | |
And as they disappeared into the brush - I heard the driver say: | |
He's a little slow between the ears - He's always been that way. | |
I've got two girls - one's in heaven, one's below. | |
One I love with all my heart, And one I do not know. | |
Jolly Jane just lays around - And listens with her mouth. | |
She's had about a dozen husbands, But the last one just pulled out. | |
Now who's gonna bring her dinner - Through the weary years ahead? | |
All she'll get from me is sympathy, Got no time to see she's fed. | |
I've got two girls - one's in heaven, one's below. | |
One I love with all my heart, And one I do not know. | |
Cold down on the bayou, They say it's in your mind. | |
But the moccasins are treadin' ice, And leavin' strange designs. | |
Cajuns say the last time - This happened they werent' here. | |
Aah, beaumont's full of penguins, And I'm a playin' it by ear. | |
I've got two girls - one's in heaven, one's below. | |
One I love with all my heart, And one I do not know. | |
