_ In a little cabaret in a South [F] Texas border town sat a boy and his guitar.
And the people came [Bb] from all around and all the girls from [F] there to Austin were slipping
away from home and putting jewelry [Bb] in the hop to take the trip to go [F] and listen to the
little dark haired boy who played the Tennessee [Bb] flat [C] top box that [Eb] he would play. _ _ _ _

_ Well he couldn't ride a wrangle and he never cared [F] to make a dime but give him his guitar
and he'd be happy [Bb] all the time.
And all the girls from nine [F] to ninety were snapping fingers, tapping toes and begging
him [Bb] don't stop and _ hypnotized and [F] fascinated _ by the little dark haired boy who played the
Tennessee [Bb] flat top [Eb] box that he would play. _ _ _ _

Then one day he was gone and no one [F] ever saw him around he vanished like the breeze.
They forgot him [Bb] in the little town but all the girls still [F] dreamed about him and hung
around the cabaret until the [Bb] doors were locked.
And then one day on the [F] hit parade _ was a little dark haired boy who played the Tennessee flat
[Bb] top [G] box that he [Eb] would [D] play.
