This is my variation. I left out the solo. I fingerpick, but not at Mr. Thompson's level. :). The top part is the usual lyrics + chords. See tab for variation on chord formation.
AShe danced in the street with the Dguns all Aaround her AAll torn like a rag doll Ebarefoot in the rain AShe sang like a child to-ra-Dday-to-ra-Ada-dee AOh how will I ever be Esimple Aagain
AShe sat on the banks of the Ddirty gray Ariver AAnd tried for a fish with a Eworm on a pin AThere was nothing but fever and Dghosts in that Awater AOh how will I ever Ebe simple Aagain A/A A/B A/C
DWar was my love Amy friend and companion DWhat did I care for the Apretty and Eplain AHer smile was so clear and my Dheart was so Atroubled AOh how will I ever Ebe simple aAgain
Solo
AIn her poor burned out house I Dsat by her Atable AThe smell of her hair was like Ecornfields in May AI wanted to weep and my Deyes ached from Atrying AOh how will I ever be Esimple Aagain A/A/ A/B A/C
DHow graceful she moved in the Adust and the ruins DHow happy she was in her Adances and gEames ATeach me to see with your Dinnocent Aeyes love AOh how will I ever be Esimple Aagain AOh how will I ever be Esimple Aagain --------------------------------------------------------
