[Verse 1]
A D
I've held it all inward, God knows,
A
I've tried
E A
But it's an awful awakening in a country boy's life
D A
To look in the mirror in total surprise
E A
At the hair on my shoulders and the age in my eyes
[Chorus]
A D A
Amanda, light of my life
E A
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
D A
Amanda, light of my life
E A
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
[Solo]

[Verse 2]
A D A
It's a measure of people who don't understand
E A
The pleasures of life in a hillbilly band
D A
I got my first guitar when I was fourteen
E A
Now I'm over thirty, still wearing jeans
[Chorus]
A D A
Amanda, light of my life
E A
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
D A
Amanda, light of my life
E A
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
