Verse 1
Db
Db
I was
nineteen when I came to town
They called it the summer of love
Burnin' babies, burnin' flags,
Gb
Gb
the hawks against the doves
Db
Db
And I took a job in a steamy,
down on Cauldron Street
Fell in love with the laundry girl
Gb
Gb
who was workin' next to me
Bbm
Bbm
She was a rare thing,
Db
Db
fine as a bee's wing
Bbm
Bbm
Gb
Gb
Db
Db
So fine a breath of wind
Ab

Gb
might blow her away
Bbm

Db
Db
She was a lost child, she was running wild
Bbm

She said, as long as there's no price
Db

on love I'll stay

And you wouldn't want me

Db
Db
any other way
Brown hair zigzagged round her face,
and a look of half surprise
Like a fox caught in the headlights,
Ab
Ab
Gb
Gb
there was animal in her eyes
Db
Db
She said, young man, oh, can't you see
I'm not the factory kind
If you don't take me out of here
Gb
Gb
I'll surely lose my mind
Bbm

Verse 2
Db
Db
We bussed around the market towns
We picked fruit down in Kent
We could tinker pots and pans
Ebm

Bbm
Bbm
Gb
Gb
and knives wherever we went
Db
Db
And I said that we might settle down
and get a few acres dug
Fire burning in the hearth
Gb
Gb
Db
Db
Gb

and babies on the rug
Db
Db
She said, young man, you're
a foolish man,
that surely sounds like hell
Gb
Gb
Db
Db
You might be lord of half the world
Gb
Gb
But you'll not own me as well

Db
And you wouldn't want me any other way
We were camping down the Gower
one time,
the work was pretty good
She thought we shouldn't wait for the frost,
Gb
Gb
I thought maybe we should
Db
Db
We were drinking more in those days,
and our tempers reached a pitch
And like a fool I let her run
Gb
Gb
with a rambling itch
Bbm

Db
Db
Last year I heard she was
sleeping out
Down on the Derby beat
White horse in her hip pocket
Ab
Ab
Db
Db
Gb
Gb
And a wolf hand at her feet
Db
Db
And they say she even
married one time
A man named Romany Brown
But even her gypsy caravan
Gb
Gb
Db
Db
Gb
Gb
Was too much settling down

Ab
Db
Db
any other way
They say her flower has faded now,
hard weather and hard booze
Maybe that's just the price you pay
Gb
Gb
Db
Db
Gb
Gb
for the change you refuse
Bbm
Bbm
She was a rare thing,
Db

fine as a bee's wing

And I miss her more than any words can say
Bbm

If I could just taste all her wildness now,

If I could hold her in my arms today,

Then I wouldn't want her
