Am   F   C   G


🎸 Verse 1:
Am
Call her up in the middle of the morning
F
5:00 on the dot without a warning
C                             G
Pouring my heart out into the phone
Am
Half awake and barely asleep
F

Hours spent listening to her dreams
C                                          G
‘Cause hearing that voice makes me feel at home


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
            F
Well it’s a blessing just to know her name
     G
That sparkle in her eyes can put stars to shame
           F
And it’s a wonder if she’ll ever think twice
     G
On a wretch like me wouldn’t that be nice


🎸 Chorus:
C
Smile brighter than them Arkansas diamonds
Am
Dreams bigger than a Texan’s horizon
F                 Am
Lord knows a poor man like me
G
Would do anything
C
‘Cause your love is what I’m pining
Am
Cut nice polished and shining
F
A gem like you is hard findings
        G                                         C   Am   F   G
So I’ll keep on digging for this Arkansas diamond

Am
She lives her life wild and free
F
Doesn't know what she means to me
C                                 G
Doesn’t have a single clue in the world
Am
But she’ll forever have my heart
F
No matter where we are
C                          G
It’ll always belong to you girl

           F
And it’s a blessing just to know her touch

Her sweet southern drawl will make you fall in love

And this lady that I hold so dear

Well I’d be nothing without her here


🎸 Chorus:
C
Smile brighter than them Arkansas diamonds

Dreams bigger than a Texan’s horizon

Lord knows a poor man like me
