Like a trade secret,

A 
F#m 
She dreams of the old west

and hombres who drew faster

Who'd never back down
G 
even in the face of disaster
E 
But it's all a dream

in every last detail

Just like her old friend Tommy

when the trailer hitch was broke

Up and left everything he owned

cause he thought it was a joke

She'd throw it all away,
G

even her earrings and scarves

That necklace from Morocco

She's got some songs to sing

But it's all a dream
A 
in every laugh they take

Her best friends are whiskey

and the church good beer bars too
Gm 
D 
Her visions are tyrants
that got her locked
A 
F#m 
In the rocks, she could be a queen
G 
Covered in garlands and pearls

But a flea  market soul

And it's just like a dream
In every last detail

Wild West outlaw, Belle Starr
Abandoned and stranded

under a northern sky

Her home and all of her

That she could never leave him

Her dreams look like stains on

A wedding gown

The tree's left black stains

On the wedding gown you
