Met the girl I loved in a town way down in Dixie
Beneath the stars up above, she was the sweetest girl I ever kissed
So I held her in my [Bb] arms, told her of her many [Eb] charms
I kissed her while the guitars [Bb] played the ball of [Eb] cards she'd swing Guitar!
[Bb] [C]
[Eb] [C] [Eb]
All the world was bright as I held her on that night
And I heard her say, [Bb] please don't you go away
So [Eb] I held her in my [Bb] arms, told her of her many [Eb] charms
I kissed her while the bagpipes [Bb] played the ball of [Eb] cards she'd beat
Bagpipes!
