Standard (EADGBE)
Intro x2
Verse 1
I was working at the railroad
FILL
On the train to Arkansas.
Last summer I met a girl,
FILL
She came from nowhere in Idaho.
Chorus
I can't get, no, no, no
I just can't get
* FILL
Her out of my mind.
Can't forget, no, no, no
Those bedroom eyes
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
I was working at the railroad
FILL
On the train to Arkansas.
Last summer I met a girl,
She came from nowhere
FILL
She came from nowhere in Idaho!
Bridge
Still I wonder about her name.
Guess she never told
And I never asked.
Like a southern hurricane
She took me by surprise and then
Vanished in the... in the haze
Chorus
I can't get, no, no, no
I just can't get
* FILL
Her out of my mind.
Can't forget, no, no, no
Those bedroom eyes
And that little gracious smile.
Can't forget, no, no, no
Those bedroom eyes
And that little gracious smile.
