F
I remember back in Illinois I found her
Am7 Dm
The lily of the valley the lily of the West was a rose
F
The daughter of the biggest big town banker
Am7 Gm
He kept her like a princess I stole her like the Fort Knox gold
F
She used to pour Four Roses like it was going down the chimney
Am7 Dm
Like the bottle was on fire or the boiler was about to blow
F
She was up on the table when we hit Missouri
Am7 Gm
Dancing with a movie man he was holding her a little too close
Dm7 Am7 Gm
La didi da da da da da da da!
F
He made her the star of the silent movies
Am7 Dm
But all she did was mouth the words all she did was mouth the words, "Oh no!"
F
And he cast me as the villain as the sheriff's worst enemy
Am7 Gm
I practiced falling off of buildings and out windows
Dm7 Am7 Gm
La didi da da da da da da da!
F
The last time I saw she was tied to the train tracks
Am7 Dm
I was back there with the extras riding on a tiger roan
F
The villain on the left with the studio mustache
Am7 Gm
Winking at Lillian blowing kisses from the second row
Dm7 Am7 Gm
La didi da da da da da da da!
