Intro: E
1st Verse
E A
Just a ragged kid in overalls
B E
He thumbed a ride one day
A F#m B
He told me "anywhere your going is on my way"

But as we passed by big Al’s Drive In
B E
His eyes began to flash
A F#m B
He was leavin’ Rapid City mighty fast
Chorus
A
He said "I hope to god
E
She finds the goodbye letter that I wrote her
B A E
For the mail don’t move so fast in Rapid City, South Dakota"
2nd Verse
E A B E
Well he left her just a blanket of snow upon the farm
A F#m B
And that don’t keep your conscience very warm

He said his friends were too durn country

And his Pa was too damn mean
A F#m B
And there weren’t no money pumpin' gasoline
Chorus

And her gentle eyes
E
The merchandise of dreams the peddler sold her
B A E
Left her there alone in Rapid City, South Dakota.

E A
Now the reason he was going
B E
I ain’t sure I could say
A F#m B
Might've been the rodeo in Santa Fe
E A
"There’s a doctor in Chicago
B E
I know she’ll be alright"
A F#m B
He told himself as he stared into the night
Chorus
A
And he said "I hope to god
E
She finds the goodbye letter that I wrote her
B A E
For the mail don’t move so fast in Rapid City, South Dakota.
A
And all her people treatin' her

Just like they never knowed her

Lord the winter’s passin’ slow in Rapid City,
E
South Dakota"
