When that [G] old wild streak be[D]neath my skin [Em] sets my craziness [G7]
free
again they'll [C] all say I told you [G] so. Love won't [C] grow for a [D]
cactus and a
[G] rose. C G
chorus
Cause I [G] still like to drink my [Em] beer and I [C] still love honky [G]
tonks.
Where the [Em] good ole girls will always dance with you when the [C] high
falootin
women [D7] won't. And I'm [G] locked into a [Bm] way of life I can't [C]
give it up i
[G7] know it makes me [C] sad love [G] can't be had for a [D7] cactus and a
[G] rose. G Em C G Em C D7 G
[G] Sometimes falling [D] makes more sense than [Em] sitting in the middle of
the
