D A E D
She said 85 years have fairly flown
D A E F#m
They called me last night said my brother passed on
D A E D
I cried for a while and stared at the wall
D A E A
‘Cause there’s no one I know left in Arkansas
E D
I can still see the five of us climb out the window
F#m E
To lay on the porch roof that night, in the summer time
E D
Mama would line us all up on a Saturday
F#m E
To each have our turn in the tub
D
She said that was Arkansas
A D A E D
When she was young we had kerosene nights and innocent days
D A E F#m
Never dreamed we all would go separate ways
D A E D
But with each passing or a baby came a long distance call
D A E A
And we’d all make the trip back to Arkansas
E D
I could still see my brothers in the faces of old man
F#m E
We talked about horses and things we were missing
E D
Like the smell of a hay field the slow rolling thunder
F#m E
And thinking that nothing would change
D
Yeah just like Arkansas
A G Bm
In her younger days she said time is a river that rolls on forever
A E
You can’t stop at the shore line to admire the view
G Bm
So you pack up your memories, pressed them like flowers
C B
‘Till all that is left here is you
E D A
And Arkansas
E D
She still can hear the song of a Whip-poor-will, calling her,
F#m E
The wind as he whispers her name in the evening
E D
And mama still beautiful and graceful, a sunshine
F#m E
And daddy is handsome and strong
D D
Yeah just like Arkansas, yeah her Arkansas
D
Yeah that was Arkansas
