Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

  A vagabond dreamer, a rhymer and singer of songs

  Singing to no one and nowhere to really belong

  I met a beautiful lady, a pure Southern belle of the ball

  Like Scarlet O'Hara loved no one and wanted them all

Chorus

  I'll never forget you and love you inspite of your faults

  The good and the bad I want to remember it all

  I did a new dance and you did your Tennessee Waltz

  The party's all over I came uninvited

  I'm leaving and taking the belle of the ball

Verse 1

  There will always be someone I guess that's the way it should be

  I guess i should know that someone used to be me

  They'll gather around her soon they'll all look the same

  At the feet of the lady are lover's without any names

Chorus.
