While I'm at it, here's another one I *think* I remember :-) Bare with me,
especially on the words. You'd be amazed how hard it can be for a
non-native to actually understand all the lyrics of a song, even if your
english is pretty good. I admit having *guessed* at some of the words.

Heartaches of a Fool - Willie Nelson
G G7 C G
Started out with the dreams, the plans of a wise man
Em D G
ended up with the heartaches of a fool
G C G
As a boy I walked through the valley
D G
and gazed at the world all around
G7 C G
made a vow that somehow I'd find fame and fortune
Em D G
I found it look at me now
I had a sweetheart who would love me forever
didn't need her; I would reign all alone
look at me I'm the king of cold lonely castle
the queen of my heart is gone
Get around me, you fools for a dollar
listen to me; a lesson you'll learn
well there's hapiness and love sent from heaven above
and the fires of ambition will burn
