From Cotton To Satin

Capo 4 (or tune down ½ step)


     E                    
From cotton to satin, from 
        A
Birmingham to Manhattan
       E                     B7
From a pickup to a long limousine
     E                    
From cotton to satin, from

She had to follow her dream

  E                      A     
I saved up enough to buy her one

        E                          
And the dream house I promised her 
      A               E
still lies by a shade tree

So I mortgaged the farm and we were 
gone
But while we were there she took up 
with a rich man
I came back to the country alone

Bb            F
touched every flower
            F                      
There's the meadow where we walked 
        C7
hand in hand
   F                            Bb
If only she'd waited she'd have 
            F
more than she dreamed of
    F                 C7        F
For today they struck oil on my land


Up ½ step to F#
She went from cotton to satin, from 
Burmingham to Manhattan
From a pickup to a lonely limousine
From cotton to satin, from 
Burmingham to Manhattan
She had to follow her dream
She went from cotton to satin
