Merle Haggard - Red Bandana guitar chord

Red Bandana

By Merle Haggard

Capo 1

D G

We left home when we was barely past eleventeen

D A

Been back and fourth and all around through hell and rain

D G

I've loved you half of your life and I’ll keep on lovin’ you

D A D

But I can't change and live the way you want me to

We spend a lot of time out on the highway

Comin’ from some town we played along the way

After 30 years of knowing me the way you do

You know I can’t change and live the way you want me to

Chorus: But babe,

A D

That red bandana tied around your auburn hair

A D

You look like you ought to be somebody's wife somewhere

D G

You ain't never going to be no Bobby McGee but you’re tryin’ to

D A D

But I can't change and live the way you want me to

Every time you leave the stage I know you've had your fill

And I wonder why you grew up and why I never will

Hey, I'm 41 today still going on 22

But I can't change and live the way you want me to

Chorus

I can't change and live the way you want me to
