The prettiest girl
   F#        Bm
In all the world
        Em     A7      D    A7
Is in a little Spanish town
      D              F#     Bm
But I left her for a Bonnie lass
      E7                     A7
And I told her I'd see her around

         D      D7
But that Bonnie lass
        G
And her heart of glass
       E7
Would not hold a candle
    A7
To bummin' around

         D
So don't cry for me
         F#      Bm
'Cause I'm going away
         Em           A7     D   A7
And I'll be back some lucky day


         D
Tell the boys back home
     F#        Bm
I'm doing just fine
    Em         A7        D  A7
I left my troubles and woe
   D
So sing about me
      F#         Bm
For I can't come home
       Em           A7
I've many more miles to go


                  D
Why, there's Miss Kelsey
           G
She taught dance at our school
         Em
And old Johnny O'Toole
            A7
I'll still beat you at pool

         D
So don't cry for me
        F#     Bm
For I'm going away
         Em           A7     D
And I'll be back some lucky day


         D
Well, when I was a boy
       F#             Bm
My daddy sat me on his knee
         Em           A7
And he told me... many things
           D
And he said son
         F# 
There's a lotta things in this world
                  Bm
You're gonna have no use for

      Em
And when you get blue
           A7
And you've lost all your dreams
        Em
There's nothin' like a campfire
       A7
And a can of beans


                  D
Why, there's Miss Kelsey
