Verse 1
T 'was (E minor) early (G major) on a Saturday morn,
I was strollin' in the (F major) wood.
(G major) I chanced (A minor) upon a (G minor) lady
who (G major) by the wayside stood.
I said, pray,
what (G minor) would such (G major) a lass
as you be doin' here?
I've come to take some photographs,
she said, as I drew (A minor) near.
(G major) Said I to her, I do declare,
this (A minor) is a fateful day.
(G major) For I have come to photograph
the same as you did say.
So I (A minor) pulled out (G major) my Nikon F
and placed it in her hand.
She said, that's quite a (A minor) camera,
(G major) you've got it your command.
My (G major) camera so delighted her
that with no (G major) more delay,
She let me see her camera case
wherein her accessories lay.
I said to her, I'm sure you've
everything that can be bought.
Just let me stretch my tripod
before I take some (A major) shots.
(A minor)
(G major) We photographed from haylofts
and up against the wall.
If you've not photographed
on a Saturday night,
you've not photographed at all.
She (A minor) had her (F major) shutter (A minor) opened (G major) wide
(C major) for daylight (F major) was all gone.
Likewise, (G major) my naked camera lens,
it had (A minor) it s filter (A major) on.
(G major) This lady had experience with cameras,
yes, in (A major) deed.
(G major) And I thought that her exposure's
the best I ever see'd.
Although (A major) she (G major) seemed to tire not,
as on and on we went.
Says, (F sharp minor) I will have to finish now,
(D flat minor) my film sup (A minor) ply is (A major) spent.
(G major) She said, I've had Minolta's,
(A major) Yoshi (G major) ka's,
and Ro (G minor) lay,
(F major) Hasselblad and (F major) Pentax,
(G major) likewise, a Polaroid, Miranda,
(A major) Leica,
Nicormat, a Kodak,
and the rest.
But now (G major) I've had (F sharp minor) your Nikon F,
I'm sure that it's the best.
