That Girl Played Injun With Me

D A D D A Oh the place where I first saw the light D Was a ranch on the desert so dry A The love of my song every night D Was the howl of some coyote close by Bm A At ten I was ridin' the range D And friends I rarely did see D# But it happened that visits I'd often exchanged A D With the girl that played injun with me G A Oh the girl that played injun with me D Would set my heart dancing with glee Em I would ride many miles for one of the smiles A D Of the girl that played injun with me A One twenty we met at a dance D It was there I first felt Cupids dart A She conquered my heart with a glance D And lassoed my wild bronco heart G A I lived from her then twenty miles F#m Am D Now that may seem far I'll agree G But t'was there I would journey for one of the smiles Am D Of the girl that played injun with me A How often I'd round up the herd D Mount the pinto, the blue, or the roan Am And ride like a lone desert bird D To the ranch of the girl of my own A A proud dapple grey she would ride D Where the prarie bloom scented the lee G And I felt like a hero to ride side by side A D Of the girl that played injun with me G A Oh the girl that played injun with me D Would set my heart dancing with glee Em I would ride many miles for one of the smiles A D Of the girl that played injun with me A One evening I dressed in my best D And I saddled my fleet-footed bay A The sunset was tinting the west D As in rapture I galloped away G A My goal was the girl of my heart D For soon my dear wife she would be E A And I knew that I never oh never could part D From the girl that played injun with me A I arrived at her ranch just at nine D Could scarcely wait to propose Bm A I knew she would vow to be mine D Oh but what do you really suppose G A A dude from the city was there D I felt like a burnt hollow tree Bm For he sat in the moonlight and on the same chair A D With the girl that played injun with me. G A Oh the girl that played injun with me D Would set my heart dancing with glee Em I would ride many miles for one of the smiles A D D Of the girl that played injun with me.
