Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Oh  you get me ready in your 56 Chevy
 Why don't we go sit down in the shade
 Take shelter on my front porch
 The dandy lion sun scorching,
 Like a glass of cold lemonade
I  will do laundry  if you  pay all the bills
Where  is my John  Wayne
Where  is my prairie  son
Where  is my happy  ending
Where  have all the Cowboys  gone
 REPEAT INTRO
 Why  don't you stay the evening
 Kick back and watch the TV
 And I'll fix a little something to eat
 Oh I know your back hurts from working on the tractor
 How do you take your coffee my sweet
I  will raise  the children if  you pay all the bills
 REPEAT CHORUS
I  am wearing my new  dress tonight
 But you don't even notice me
Say  our goodbyes  (3 times)
 We  finally sold the Chevy
 When we had another baby
 And you took that job in Tennessee
 You made friends at the farm
 And you joined them at the bar
 Almost every single day of the week
I  will wash the dishes  while you  go have a beer
 REPEAT CHORUS
Where  is my Marlboro  Man
Where  is his shiny  gun
Where  is my lonely  ranger
Where  have all the cowboys  gone
