[Intro]

| D | A | G | Asus4 A |
[Verse 1]
D A G Asus4 A With your mercury mouth in the missionary times D A G Asus4 A And your eyes like smoke and your prayers like rhymes G D Em7 A7 D And your silver cross, and your voice like chimes D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 Oh, who do they think could bu- ury you?
[Verse 2]
D A G Asus4 A With your pockets well protected at last D A G Asus4 A And your streetcar visions which you place on the grass G D Em7 A7 D And your flesh like silk, and your face like glass D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 Who could they get to carry you?
[Chorus]
Em D A Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands Em D | A | A7 | Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes D A G D G D Asus4 A | A | My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 Should I put them by your gate Em | D | % | Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
[Verse 3]
D A G Asus4 A With your sheets like metal and your belt like lace, D A G Asus4 A And your deck of cards missing the jack and the ace G D Em7 A7 D And your basement clothes and your hollow face D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 Who among them could think he could outguess you?
[Verse 4]
D A G Asus4 A With your silhouette when the sunlight dims D A G Asus4 A Into your eyes where the moonlight swims G D Em7 A7 D And your match-book songs and your gypsy hymns D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 Who among them would try to impress you?
[Chorus]
Em D A Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands Em D | A | A7 Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes D A G D G D Asus4 A | A | My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 Should I put them by your gate Em | D | % | Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
[Verse 5]
D A G Asus4 A The kings of Tyrus with their convict list D A G Asus4 A Are waiting in line for their geranium kiss G D Em7 A7 D And you wouldn't know it would happen like this D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 But who among them really wants just to kiss you?
[Verse 6]
D A G Asus4 A With your childhood flames on your midnight rug D A G Asus4 A And your Spanish manners and your mother's drugs G D Em7 A7 D And your cowboy mouth and your curfew plugs D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 Who among them do you think could resist you?
[Chorus]
Em D A Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands Em D | A | A7 | Where the sad-eyed prophet say that no man comes D A G D G D Asus4 A | A7 | My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 Should I leave them by your gate Em | D | % | Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
[Verse 7]
D A G Asus4 A Oh, the farmers and the businessmen, they all did decide D A G Asus4 A To show you where the dead angels are that they used to hide G D Em7 A7 D But why did they pick you to sympathize with their side? D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 How could they ever mistake you?
[Verse 8]
D A G Asus4 A They wished you'd accepted the blame for the farm D A G Asus4 A But with the sea at your feet and the phony false alarm G D Em7 A7 D And with the child of a hoodlum wrapped up in your arms D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 How could they ever, ever persuaded you?
[Chorus]
Em D A Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands Em D | A | A7 | Where the sad-eyed prophet say that no man comes D A G D G D Asus4 A | A | My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 Should I put them by your gate Em | D | % | Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
[Verse 9]
D A G Asus4 A With your sheet-metal memory of Cannery Row D A G Asus4 A And your magazine-husband who one day just had to go G D Em7 A7 D And your gentleness now, which you just can't help but show D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 Who among them do you think would employ you?
[Verse 10]
D A G Asus4 A Now you stand with your thief, you're on his parole D A G Asus4 A With your holy medallion in your fingertips now that fold G D Em7 A7 D And your saintlike face and your ghostlike soul D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 Who among them could ever think he could destroy you
[Chorus]
Em D A Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands Em D | A | A7 | Where the sad-eyed prophet say that no man comes D A G D G D Asus4 A | A | My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7 Should I leave them by your gate Em | D | % | Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
