Met the girl that I love, in a [E] town way down in Texas,
[A] Beat the stars up above, she was the sweetest girl I ever did see.
So I held her in my [E] arms and told her of her many [A] charms,
And I kissed her while the fiddle played, [E] the ball of hearts [A] retreat.
And all the [Em] world was bright, as I held her hand [F#m] that night,
And [Em] I heard her say, don't you ever [E] go away.
[A] So I held her in my arms [E] and told her of her many charms,
[A] And I kissed her while the guitar played, [E] the ball of hearts retreat.
