Verse:

G C B7

Last night the willows stopped weeping

C D G

And everything sat hushed and still

G C B7

And while my body lay sleeping

C D G

I dreamt of Rebecca Deville

G C B7

Now I wonder if she was a real girl

C D G

Did she die when I woke?

C D B7

Well I'll sleep straight through to tomorrow

C D G

And look for her till I go broke

Intro x1

Verse:

Chorus:

G D G D G D C

Anybody, has anybody seen my little girl around

G D G D

I last saw her in New Orleans

G D C

I can't find her now

Verse:

G C B7

I stepped into the nearest twilight bar

C D G

To ask if anyone knew

G C B7

The whereabouts of my Rebecca Deville

C D G

The bartender said that he knew

G C B7

He said that just a few weeks ago

C D G

She hitched a ride out west

G C B7

With a man who said he'd show her the big time

C D G

Said he would show her the best

G C B7

But he stopped the car two miles down the road

C D G

And he put a gun to her head

C D B7

And raped her of all that she ever had

C D G

When Rebecca was found she was dead

Chorus x

B7 C G

Low doesn't even begin

B7 C G

To describe the shape that I am in

B7 C G

But you can dream in both directions

B7 C G

And bring the past back again

B7 C G

So maybe i can find her

B7 C G

Before heaven goes and hides her

B7 C G

Hope and keep her from going

C (add some CMaj7's in there, too)

(walk down from C to the G that goes into the final Chorus)

Chorus

(walk down from C and end on G)
