[Intro]
Bm E7 G A D
[Verse 1]
Bm A Bob Wills is playing the old London hall G A Bm The whole town was out in their best Bm A There's a boy called Caballo, he sported a plow G A D Fell in love with a girl in the blue cotton dress Bm A Now they weren’t much on dancing that grand ballroom style G A Bm But they shuffled across the dance floor in time Bm A She said I’ve nothing to offer he said I’ve nothing to take from you G A D Except for your heart if you’ll say you’ll be mine
[Chorus]
Bm E7 Young lovers waltzing on the town square at dawn A D Round, round the courthouse with no chaperone Bm E7 It’s a turn for a heartbeat and a turn for a sigh G A D It’s a turn for the waltzers who can’t say goodbye
[Verse 2]
Bm A It was biscuits and gravy, sweat on the ground G A Bm Harvesting late in the eve Bm A And he lay with his blue girl when they lost their first child G A D Holding her to him away in their dreams
[Chorus]
Bm E7 Young lovers waltzing on the town square at dawn A D Round, round the courthouse with no chaperone Bm E7 It’s a turn for a heartbeat and a turn for a sigh G A D It’s a turn for the waltzers who can’t say goodbye
[Solo]
Bm E7 A D
Bm E7 G A D
[Verse 3]
Bm E7 The shadows grew longer the porch swing turned gray A D The sunlight gave way to the moon Bm E7 And that ben old Caballo rocking away G A D Hums to his blue girl an old Bob Wills tune
[Chorus]
Bm E7 Of young lovers waltzing on the town square at dawn A D Round, round the courthouse with no chaperone Bm E7 It’s a turn for a heartbeat and a turn for a sigh G A D It’s a turn for the waltzers who can’t say goodbye G A D It’s a turn for the waltzers who can’t say goodbye
