Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I [C]met the girl I loved,
a town way down in Dixie
Be[F]neath the [C]stars above,
the sweetest [G]thing I ever did see
[C]So I held her in my [G]arms,
I told of her many [Gm]charms
[G]I k[C]issed her while the fiddles played,
[G]our bonapartes retreated
[C]And all the world seemed bright,
as I held her on that night
And I heard her say, please,
don't you [G]ever go [C]away
So I held her in my arms
and [G]I told her of her many charms
I [C]guess to all the fiddles played,
the [G]Bonaparte's retreat
[C]Wel[G]l,[C][D][G]
