Someday Soon
Ian Tyson, 1964· Songs Well-Known in America · p.298
G Em C G
There's a young man that I know, his age is twenty-one
Bm C D
He comes from down in southern Colorado
G Em C G
Just out of the service and he's looking for some fun
Am7 D7 G
Someday soon, going with him, someday soon
My parents cannot stand him ‘cause he rides the rodeo
My father says that he will leave me crying
I would follow him right down the toughest road I know
Someday soon going with him, someday soon
Bridge:
D C G
And when he comes to call my pa ain't got a good word to say
Em A7 D7
Guess it's 'cause he's just as wild in his younger days
So blow you old blue northern, blow my love to me
He's driving in tonight from California
He loves his damned old rodeo as much as he loves me
Someday soon, going with him, someday soon
