T: I  followed you to  Texas
     A7               D
T: I  followed you to  Utah
                     G             A7
D: We didn't find it  there, so we  moved on;
     D                G
T: I  followed you to  Al-a-bam'
   A7                     D

                     G                   A7

CHORUS
                 D         G
B: I know you're  tired of  followin'
   A7          D
B:  My elusive  dreams and schemes
   G                 D
B:  For they're only  fleeting things
   A7          D
B:  My elusive  dreams.

T: I had your child in Memphis
T: You heard of work in Nashville
D: We didn't find it there, so we moved on;
D: To a small farm in Nebraska
D: To a gold mine in Alaska
T: We didn't find it there, so we moved on.

D: And now we've left Alaska,
D: Because there was no gold mine.

(SPOKEN)
T: But this time, only two of us moved on
T: Now all we have is each other
T: And a little memory to cling to.
D: And still you won't let me go on alone.

D: I know you're tired of followin'
D: My elusive dreams and schemes
D: For they're only fleeting things
D: My elusive dreams.

B: For they're only fleeting things, my elusive dreams.

T: TAMMY
D: DAVID
B: DUET
