E                             
Well she opened that door and I 
  D            A
knelt on the floor

and I put that ring in her hand
E                      D

 with me soon to the rigs out in 
 G     E

Well I told her to hide that ring
       A                       
 there inside and wait till the

     E
understood

Verse
E                                 
Well that sheriff he found me out 
D            A                   
wonder'n all around El Paso the 
G        E

day
E                                
You see I'd lost my mind on that 
D            A
broken white line
              G       E
before I even reached Balmaray

Now she's in Ft.Worth and she's 
          A

E                            
And they burried that poor old 
  D              A

with the ring that I stole on her 
E
hand

Sometimes they let me look up at 
     A          E
that East Texas sky
A                            D   
and the rain on the pines oh lord

 how it shines
E
like my darlins little diamond in 
the lights of Loving County
