Verse 1
D
Oh my,
G
C
my, my-
In a dusty caravan
A
Was a girl with a golden tan
F
And she asked me if I was
G
C
G
headed to the east
C
I politely stepped a side and
A
said I did not need a ride
F
That I'd rather take my
G
C
chances with the heat
E
Well, when she turned and walked away
A
Am
I saw my big mistake
F
There were jewels on her
G
body oh- so- rare
C
Had it been another day I just
A
might have rode away
F
G
With that woman riding off
C
G
to God- knows- where
C
So the years they came and went
A
And found me living in a tent
F
G
C
G
Far above a little marble stream
C
And it may have been the light
A
that shone out through the night
F
That attracted the hand
G
C
scratching on my screen
E
When I cautiously looked
out through the night
Am
There was no doubt
F
G
That the owner of that hand was that girl
C
So I bid her do come in
Am
A
And I'll open up a tin
F
G
If you'll tell me 'bout your trip
C
G
around the world
C
Well, she said,"If you think back
A
To the first time that we passed
F
G
I'm sure you'll picture me
C
F
in all my jewels
G
C
It was shortly after then that
A
I ran into another man
F
And I asked him the same
G
C
question I asked you
E
But now he he didn't refuse
A
Am
And he took off of both his shoes
F
And climbed aboard mu
G
east- bound caravan
C
In the twinkling of the night
A
He knocked me off the side
F
G
C
And left me there for dead upon the sand
And I thought I was done
G
A
Lying naked in the sun
F
G
When much to my surprise,
who should pass?
C
But this old friend of yours
A
He said he knew you from the wars
F
G
And I told him that I thought
C
you'd headed west
E
Well, he said he should have known
A
Am
'Cause you like to be alone
Dm
F
And that's the time I
G
knew you were my one
C
So I asked him for a ride
A
Just to get here by your side
F
And stay here above this stream
G
C
G
Out of the sun"
C
Well, we sat quite for a while
A
And I began to smile
F
G
C
G
Well it's strange but I don't care
C
And some nights when I'm at rest
A
I wonder if I'd said, "yes"
F
Would she have come to me
G
D
C
F
from God knows where
C
E
Or would I have been the one to
A
Am
leave her lying in the sun
F
And then ended up with only
G
precious stones
C
Or would the woman in my arms
Am
A
be giv ing me her charms
F

G
If the an swer that I gave her
