C (x32010@1)                               BbWe (x1333x@1)only knew each other by a letter
                            CI (x32010@1)went to meet her off the train
C (x32010@1)                                      BbWhen (x1333x@1)the smoke had cleared and the dust was still
                                     CShe (x32010@1)was standing there and speaking my name

C (x32010@1)                              BbI (x1333x@1)guarantee she looked like an angel
                                  CI (x32010@1)couldn't think of what I should say
C (x32010@1)                            BbBut (x1333x@1)when Adam saw Eve in the garden
                                CI (x32010@1)believe he felt the selfsame way

C (x32010@1)                      BbI (x1333x@1)handed her up on the wagon
                             CAnd (x32010@1)I loaded up her trunk behind
C (x32010@1)                                     BbShe (x1333x@1)was sitting up there with the gold in her hair
                                  CAnd (x32010@1)I tried to get a hold of my mind

F (133211@1)                                  CDo (x32010@1)you think that you could love me Mary
F (133211@1)                     Eb (x43121@3)        FDo (133211@1)you think we got a chance of a life
C (x32010@1)                               BbDo (x1333x@1)you think that you could love me Mary
Bb (x1333x@1)                 CNow (x32010@1)you are to be my wife

C (x32010@1)                              BbWe (x1333x@1)finally headed out of the station
                            CAnd (x32010@1)we drove up the home trail
C (x32010@1)                                            BbAnd (x1333x@1)when we came on the farm she laid a hand on my arm
                                CI (x32010@1)thought my resolution would fail

C (x32010@1)                                 BbAnd (x1333x@1)I froze as she stepped in the doorway
                              CStood (x32010@1)there as still as could be
C (x32010@1)                                              BbI (x1333x@1)said I know it ain't much, it needs a woman's touch
                                    CLord (x32010@1)she turned around and looked at me

F (133211@1)                                  CDo (x32010@1)you think that you could love me Mary

                          CAnd (x32010@1)the both of us said I do

C (x32010@1)                                BbWhen (x1333x@1)the sun's going down on the prairie
                              CAnd (x32010@1)the gold in her hair is aflame
