Don Williams - Where The Arkansas River Leaves Oklahoma guitar chord

Where The Arkansas River Leaves Oklahoma

By Don Williams

Chorus:

C F

Where The Arkansas River Leaves Oklahoma

C G

It Runs Free And Rambles Muddy And Wide

C F

Where The Arkansas River Leaves Oklahoma

C G C

It's Gone Forever And Never Looks Back

F F C

I Met Her In Stillwell She Just Turned Twenty

C G

A Spirited Beauty Like I've Never Known

C F C

And Me A Dirt Farmer Who Lived By The River

C G C

But She Said She Loved Me And The Free Life I Owned

We Married In April And Lived By The River

We Worked That Land From Spring Till The Fall

But I Guess When The Winter Howled At Our Window

She Couldn't Help Hearing That Wild River Call

Chorus

She Tried To Conquer That Wild Rage With-in Her

But Something Too Strong Ran Deep In Her Soul

But I Know She Loved Me She Cried Like A Baby

That Cold Winter Evening She Answered The Call
