Woman With Strong Hands (and Pretty Eyes)

A Woman With Strong Hands ( and Pretty Eyes) Intro Ab---Bb---Eb---guitar fills 1st verse
 

I know this life I chose can be hard on you.
Who I am it aint no easy ride.
Still you keep your vow just to stay with me.
Still you walk this road here by my side.
 
You know I’m not the Prince from some old fairy tale.
Just like this aint no cardboard cut-out mountainside.
You and I and this sweet world are plenty real my love.
And I believe you’ll both stay with me ‘til I die.
 
I’ve got a woman with strong hands and pretty eyes.
I don’t claim that she’s some angel in disguise.
But she’s got my back, she’s got my heart
And she don’t tell me lies
My woman with strong hands and pretty eyes.

I know success aint showed up like I said it would.
But you know what success means to me any way.
It’s knowing you’re beside me in the morning…
And having a soul like yours to share my days.

There’s a song I hear when the autumn leaves kiss the wind
There’s a soft cool touch I feel in morning dew.
There’s a glows that lights the mountain just as the night comes falling;
So beautiful but Not quite beautiful as you.
 
I’ve got a woman with strong hands and pretty eyes.
She’s a cowboy’s dream; a poor dirt-farmer’s pride.
When my time is ending, as time it surely flies…
Lord may I hold those hands and look into those eyes.
My woman’s sweet strong hands and pretty eyes.
