LYRIC SHEET                                     (casually, dreamy-eyed)

[G]Oh, yeah--

[Am7]                                      [D7]

[Gmaj7]

[Am7]I once knew a lass,                      [D7]liked to smoke grass

[Gmaj7]That perky face                          and those thighs

[Am7]I would memorize                         [D7]

[Gmaj7]

[Am7]And this girl,                           [D7]made my head whirl

[Gmaj7]That's all there was

[Am7]                                      [D7]

[Gmaj7]                                         Oh, yeah--

[Am7]She was kinda nuts,                      [D7]but there were no "but"s

[Gmaj7]I had to have her

[Am7]It was kinda nice,                       [D7]chilled me like ice

[Gmaj7]Wakin' up next to her                    Light in the windowsill, yeah . . .

[Am7]She was the one,                         [D7]wore her hair in a bun

[Gmaj7]And worked in the garden,                she had a pail, oh yeah . . .

[Am7]She went shopping for clothes,           [D7]they were all old

[Gmaj7]Down at Goodwill

[Am7]Didn't know that I sang,                 [D7]Didn't know that it rang

[Gmaj7]Outta key, too -- oh yeah                Love it I love it, all--

[Am7]Just got a pencil,                       [D7]on a paper, and you just

[Gmaj7]write it, write it on down,              Round, round round and round . . .

[Am7]Didn't like tv,                          [D7]just you and me, baby

[Gmaj7]She was from the country

[Am7]She knew a little french,                [D7]got my monkeywrench

[Gmaj7]And made some magic                      Can't find magic

[Am7]It's all over now                        [D7]Don't even know how, but my baby's

[Gmaj7]gone.  She's gone, she's gone, and that's all right, it's all right because I'm

[Am7]Sittin' around,                          [D7]I'm not up I'm not down -- Just

[Gmaj7]gettin' by, gettin' high, driving around and around in the sky yeah

[Am7]Some say it's crazy,                     [D7]others lazy, but I

[Gmaj7]know.  I know, I know, I know, I know,   I know -- you just gotta

[Am7]Do it all up there again someday,        [D7]You might get lucky, today I know

She's comin' [Gmaj7]back

[Gmaj7]Gunny sack, gunny sack, gunny gunny sack--      And she's

[Am7]She was the one

[D7]Wore her hair in the bun, and I ain't tellin' no [Gmaj7]more

No, no no no--[Abmaj7]        [Gmaj7]

ADDITIONAL NOTES

Of the 93.08.26 recording, there's two versions of the intro -- a long,
unedited one and a shorter one without all of the "let's see here -- what
kinda chords we got here" dialogue.  The chord pattern is the same for
this intro.

A 1987 Fender Stratocaser (stock pickups, rosewood neck, jumbo frets, Kahler
tremolo, cream colored) was also used, plugged directly into the board (a
Yamaha MT-120 4-track recorder).
