************************************

[Verse 1]
G D
I once went down to Arkansas City
Eb C
I once hung out on that Mississippi scene, but
G D
Nothin’ caught my heart like the one who held
Eb C G
The title of Southwest County Beauty Queen
G Eb C D
G Eb C C

[Verse 2]
G D
She stood so kind out in the weather
C G
Big city lights were coming around her corner
G D
Charm, sweat, and smile were all I had to offer
C G
A six string guitar and no pennies in the coffer
Eb C
That’s where you found me, sitting at the station
G D
Waving goodbye to trespass and temptation
Eb C
And I guess I’ll never know what made you think
G D
I could be the one to make you complete

[Chorus]
G
Well, I’m sorry that it changed
D
And, I’m sorry that you know
Eb
There’s nothing around here
C
And there’s nowhere left to go
G
You’ve got me on the hook
D
I’ve got you on the lamb
Eb
We’ve only got our love
