G D7 G
I could see it in your eyes when he blew in from Tulsa
 
G7 C D7 G
With his guitar on his shoulder I knew I was losing you
 
G7 C G
And there was nothing I could do you left yourself wide open
 
D7 G
And he just blew you over like an Oklahoma wind
 
G7 C G
Like an Oklahoma twister he's got you twisted around his finger
 
D7 G
He's the kind that won't remember when it's time to move along
 
G7 C G
Like an Oklahoma twister he's a take advantage drifter
 
D7 G
When he gets what he came after you're gonna wake up all alone
 
D7 G
Long before he came around we had it all together
 
G7 C D7 G
Didn't count on stormy weather I thought I could count on you
 
G7 C G
Ain't there something I can do to make you see the danger
 
D7 G
Of that guitar picking stranger before he gets you down
 
G7 C G
Like an Oklahoma twister he's got you twisted around his finger
 
D7 G
He's the kind that won't remember when it's time to move along
 
G7 C G
Like an Oklahoma twister he's a take advantage drifter
 
D7 G
When he gets what he came after you're gonna wake up all alone
