Dwight Yoakam - Love Caught Up To Me

I think all of the lead in this song is played on a baritone guitar or something

like that, but I've kinda arranged it to be played on a guitar using Dropped-D tuning,

so its not exactly what is played (some parts I've tabbed higher), just similar.

The chords shown here are just to be played on a standard tuned guitar.

Bb = x13331

INTRO

Baby, I couldn't hide no matter how hard I descry.

Was foolish to have begun to believe I'd ever outrun.

And honey, I had no call to try and escape at all,

'Cause by the time I got free, love caught up to me.

Baby, I used to have ways to avoid any place,

That even had half the chance to cut in on my dance.

Yeah, my cool heart hung around, only if it couldn't be found,

But showed up permanently, when love caught up to me.

The fascinations of each lie,

I told myself were reasons why

The feeble boast I made alone,

Sounds faded, worn and all outgrown.

INSTRUMENTAL

Hey, I could never afford honey, all it would cost,

To replace what you do if it ever got lost.

But baby, I'd beg and steal just to keep how I feel,

A way I never did need, 'til love caught up to me.

The fascinations of each lie,

I told myself were reasons why

The feeble boast I made alone,

Sound faded, worn and all outgrown.

Baby, I couldn't hide no matter how I descry.

Was foolish to have begun to believe I'd ever outrun.

And honey, I had no call to try and escape at all,

'Cause by the time I got free, love caught up to me.

Yeah, by the time I got free love caught up to me.
