Verse 1
Prettiest girl (G major) that ever (C major) I saw
Stood on the banks of the Arkansas
And then (G major) she twirled
and her eyes were green
(C major) She was the prettiest girl
that ever I'd seen
Craziest (G major) thing that ever I (C major) saw
Big balloon floatin'
up o 'er the Arkansas
And up (G major) to the heavens it was bound
to (C major) go
Craziest (G major) thing that (C major) ever I'd known
The (G major) most wonderful thing
I could make believe
(C major) Was a world where peace
was a reigning queen.
(G major) I dreamt it on the banks
of the Arkansas,
The most (C major) wonderful thing
that ever I saw.
Ugliest thing that ever I thought,
was the type of man
that was sold and bought.
Evilest thing that ever I saw,
saw (G major) happen on the banks
of (C major) the Arkansas.
The bloodi (G major) est thing I'd ever behold
was (C major) 20 ,000 dead laying young and old
The (G major) bloodiest thing that ever I saw
Saw it (C major) right there on the Arkansas
And now I'm dying, won't live for long
The last peep I'll make is this dying song
I lived my life and that is all I'll
(G major) die right here on the (C major) Arkansas
