C G/C Am 2-0-2 on 4tb as in Intro

I fell in love with a girl of nineteen
C G/C Am C
A black-haired girl I called Abilene
C G/C Am
Young girl, where's your husband?
C G/C Am
Sadly, she replied, I do not have one
C G/C Am
Then it's you I'll marry with your parents' permission
C G/C Am
No fine sir, they will not let me marry
C
For I am a young girl
G/C Am
And you are a man without money
C G/C
Then I'll come by your window
Am
Tonight when they both will be sleeping
C G/C Am
Outside your window in a carriage I will be waiting
C G/C
They'll awake to find you gone
Am
Open their eyes and think they're dreaming
C G/C
And never did they think
Am
That their Abilene would leave them
C G/C Am
Now fine sir, where is it you shall take me?
C G/C
Is it in the mountains high
Am
Or is it the deep blue sea?
