Вступление
[Intro]
Dm
[Verse 1]
FCBb
It's a long and dusty trail from my home town in Kansas
FCDm
For a life I chose few could lead
FCBb
Travelin' with a band and movin' through the western mountains
FCDm
We're a fast livin' hard lovin' breed
[Chorus]
FCGmF
And we're barely gettin' there and barely gettin' by
BbFBbFC
Looking for a song in the wind and the clear blue sky
FCGmF
Barely gettin' there and barely gettin' by
BbFCGmBb
Our strength is in each other and our friends that will stick by
[Solo Guitar]

[Verse 2]
DmFCBb
Now money don't mean much to me I never have no extra
FCDm
Just enough to keep the wolves back from my door
DmFCBb
Long as God be willin' I'm gonna keep my horse saddled
FCDm
That will lead me down the trail right to your door
[Chorus]
FCGmF
And we're barely gettin' there and barely gettin' by

Looking for a song in the wind and the clear blue sky

Barely gettin' there and barely gettin' by

[Verse 3]
FCBb
I've seen the sun set on the golden sands of Arizona
FCDm
Felt the fragrant desert breeze caress my skin
FCBb
I marvel at the beauty of those tan skinned desert ladies
FCDm
And I long to hold one close to me again
[Chorus]
FCGmF
And we're barely gettin' there and barely gettin' by
