Verse 2: D G Linda was a lady,blonde and built to last A D Phoenix was a no good guitar picker,running from his past G She heard all his songs telling nothing but bad news A D But she made her mind up to try to get him win or lose
Chorus.
Verse 3: D G Jessie like cadillacs & diamonds on her hands A Phoenix had a reputation as a lady's man G Late one night her light of love finally gave a sign A D Jessie parked her cadillac and took her place in line
Slim Whitman sang 'Rosemarie' and the only person he ever influenced was Elvis Presley (I think they played on the louisanna hayride in 1954 together..anyhow listen to Elvis singing 'Blue-Moon'..'cause thats the slim whitman influence...)...
