D                Bm  
East is east and west is west
        D                 
And the wrong one I have chose
G                   Em
Let's go where I'll keep on wearin'
      D
Those frills and flowers and buttons and bows
                     A           D
Rings and things and buttons and bows

[Verse 2]
D                             Bm
Don't bury me on the lone prairie  
        D
Take me where the cement grows
G                  D        Em 
Let's move down to some big town
           D
Where they love a gal by the cut o' her clothes
                      A           D
And I'll stand out in buttons and bows

[Chorus]
G
I'll love you in buckskin
                      D
Or skirts that you've homespun
         D
But I'll love ya' longer, stronger where
    E                    A
Yer friends don't tote a gun
   D
My bones denounce the buckboard bounce
        D
And the cactus hurts my toes
      G             Em
Let's vamoose where gals keep usin'
      D                               G
Those silks and satins and linen that shows
                     A           D
And I'm all yours in buttons and bows

[Instrumental]
D G D G Em G A D  X2

[Chorus]
G
I'll love you in buckskin
                      D
Or skirts that you've homespun
         D
But I'll love ya' longer, stronger where
    E                    A
Yer friends don't tote a gun
 D
My bones denounce the buckboard bounce
        D
And the cactus hurts my toes
      G             Em
Let's vamoose where gals keep usin'
      D                               G
Those silks and satins and linen that shows
                     A           D
And I'm all yours in buttons and bows
      A                      D   
Gimme eastern trimmin' where women are women
A                  D
High silk hose and peek-a-boo clothes
           A            D
And French perfume that rocks the room
    A                              D
And you're all mine in buttons and bows
A           D
Buttons and bows
A           D
Buttons and bows
A           D
Buttons and bows
