VERSE 1
D5 G5
I was working at the railroad
D5 FILL
On the train to Arkansas.
D5 G5
Last summer I met a girl,
D5 FILL
She came from nowhere in Idaho.
CHORUS:
D5 A5
I can't get, no, no, no
G5
I just can't get
G5 * D5 FILL
Her out of my mind.
D5 A5
Can't forget, no, no, no
G5
Those bedroom eyes
G5 D5 FILL
And that little gracious smile.
"SPEECH-VERSE" (try to mess with G and D while speaking)
Howdy, folks!
This song's about a man and
a woman, he-he, what else?
You know one minute
everything's going fine
The next it's gone with the wind
but what the hey
I've still got my horse.

VERSE 2
D5 G5
I was working at the railroad
D5 FILL
On the train to Arkansas.
D5 G5
Last summer I met a girl,
She came from nowhere
G5 D5 FILL
She came from nowhere in Idaho!
BRIDGE
B5 G5
Still I wonder about her name.
D5
Guess she never told
E5
And I never asked.
B5 G5
Like a southern hurricane
D5
She took me by surprise and then
E5 D5
Vanished in the... in the haze
CHORUS:
D5 A5
I can't get, no, no, no
G5
I just can't get
G5 * D5 FILL
Her out of my mind.
D5 A5
Can't forget, no, no, no
G5
Those bedroom eyes
G5 D5
And that little gracious smile.
D5 A5
Can't forget, no, no, no
G5
Those bedroom eyes
G5 D5
And that little gracious smile.
