I was
Verse 1
once out strolling
D
A
one very hot summer's day
D
A
When I thought I'd lay
myself down to rest
D
A
D
A
in a big field of tall grass.
D
A
I lay there in the sun
Bm
A
D
and felt it caressing my face
A
D
A
Bm
A
D
as I fell asleep and dreamed.
A
I dreamed I was in a
D
Hollywood movie,
A
Bm
A
D
that I was the star of the movie.
A
This really blew my mind,
D
A
D
A
the fact that me, an over -fed, long -haired,
Bm
A
leaping gnome,
D
A
should be the star of a Hollywood movie.
D
A
But there I was,
Bm
A
D
A
I was taken to a place,
D
A
the hall of the mountain king,
D
A
D
A
I stood high upon a mountain top,
D
A
naked to the world,
D
A
in front of every kind of girl.
D
A
D
A
There was long ones, tall ones, short ones, brown ones,
D
black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones.

Out of the middle came
A
Bm

a lady.
She whispered in my ear
D
A
something crazy.
D
A
G
A
She said, said, do I take that girl,
G
A
do I take that girl,
Bm
A
G
A
do I take that girl, do I take that girl?
I thought to myself,
D
A
Bm
A
D
what could that mean?
A
D
Am I going crazy?
A
D
Or is this just a dream?
A
Now wait a minute,
Bm
I know I'm lying in a field
A
D
of grass somewhere
A
D
So it's all in my head
A
D
A
And then I heard her say
D
A
One more time!
G
A
Fill the wine and take that pearl

pearl

I could feel hot flames of fire
A
Bm
A
D
roaring at my back
A
As she disappeared,
Bm
A
D
A
but soon she returned
D
A
D
In her hand was a bottle of wine
A
In the other a glass,
D
A

she poured some of the wine from the bottle into the glass,
D
A
and raised it to her lips,
D
A

Take the wine, take that girl

A
Do the one, do the one, do the one, do the one,
A
do the one, do the one, do the one pick up
