Steve Earle

       D
Well I heard steve earle had lots of
 wives
 G                               A
About as many as cats have lives
Met him on his records and we're 
      D
good friends

He writes a song for everyone
      G                          
They fall in love and before it's 
      A
done
He writes an even better one when it
     D
 ends
Bm            A               G
Well I don't have to take your name
Em                            A
And you won't have to take the blame


[Chorus]
      D                         G
Steve earle, steve earle, please 
write a song for me
    A                              
I promise I won't take a dime when 
   G                     D
it comes my time to leave
The others wanted your whole heart, 
      Bm       A     G
but I just want your sleeve
     D                          
Steve earle, steve earle, please 
      G      A    D
write a song for me


[Verse 2]
        D
Well I heard he loves each one the 
same
     G
As much as ireland loves the rain
A                                  D
Steve, it rains at my house everyday

He met 'em all in every port
       G
Cause falling in love is a pilgrim 
sport
      A                            
And as long as I can be the pirate,
     D
 i'm ok!
     Bm                 A         
You moved to the city. Baby, you 
     G
had to go
    Em                          A
But I love apples and I could learn 
to love the snow


[Chorus]
     D                          G
Steve earle, steve earle, please 
write a song for me
    A                              
I promise I won't take a dime when 
   G                     D
it comes my time to leave
The others wanted your whole heart, 
      Bm       A     G
but I just want your sleeve
     D                          
Steve earle, steve earle, please 
      G      A    D
write a song for me


[Bridge]

Come on!
Bm           A                   
I could walk around in your 
    G
favorite shoes
         Bm * Bm * Bm*
Come on, just one line
A                  G
What do you got to lose?
                A
And I don't bruise


[Chorus]
      D                         G
Steve earle, steve earle, please 
write a song for me
    A                              
I promise I won't take a dime when 
     G                  D
it comes my time to leave
The others wanted your whole heart, 
       Bm     A      G
but I just want your sleeve

N.C.
And the shirt that goes with it 
cause it smells like you
N.C.
and you know I like to sleep in that
 in the vacation house at the Beach
N.C.
And a really small wedding, only 
'bout 500 people
N.C.
Did I tell you I have kids?
N.C.
You're gonna love 'em
N.C.
They're gonna need to go to college
N.C.
Do you like reggae? I love reggae
N.C.
On tuesday nights, I like to go to 
trivia,
N.C.
so that's your night to go out with 
the boys and then you can...
N.C.
