Chords

[Intro] D [Verse 1]
  D                    G
I took her on a simple trip

                     D
To see her husband's family

                        G
And on the way upon her hip

                      D
Was laid my head down gently
[Verse 2]
                              G
All due respect was meant and all

                  D
The winds were in agreement

                            G
That this was answering the call

                    D
Of awkward and true feeling
[Verse 3]
                       G
A fireman her husband was

                   D
And so to give him duty

                        G
I duly tried to light a fire

                  D
Upon his rightful booty
[Verse 4]
                           G
But beauty was my treasure then

                             D
As through the hills I drove her

                            G
And taught her that another man

                        D
Could have made love to her
[Chorus]
Bb               D
Doo doo do do do doo

Bb               D
Doo doo do do do doo

Bb               D
Doo doo do do do doo
[Solo] D G D G D [Verse 5]
D                        G
Strange is good if it is kept

                       D
A secret with the "lovers"

                                  G
Who love their mates and love themselves

                     D
And need the love of others
[Verse 6]
                           G
Through the window I could see

                          D
The fields and clouds all passing

                    G
As in the passenger position

            D
Eleanor was thrashing
[Verse 7]
                           G
I stopped the car we got a beer

                           D
And then eased down the road

                               G
A little guilt, and some guilt spilt

                 D
And added to our load
[Chorus]
Bb               D
Doo doo do do do doo

Bb               D
Doo doo do do do doo

Bb               D
Doo doo do do do doo
