Music by Elton John Lyrics by Bernie Taupin Available on the album Tumbleweed Connection [Intro] G - F - C/E - G G - F - C/E - G D - A/C# - C - G D - A/C# - C - G [Verse]
G                F6       C/E                G
Lately I've been thinking how much I miss my lady

    Bm7           Em G7/D  C                 G
Amoreena's in the cornfield brightening the daybreak

G              F6           C/E                   G
Living like a lusty flower, running through the grass for hours

Bm7                 Em G7/D C          G
Rolling through the hay like a puppy child
[Chorus]
D                     A/C#
And when it rains the rain falls down

C                G
Washing out the cattle town

D             A/C#           C       G
And she's far away somewhere in her eiderdown

G#dim             Esus4      E7
And she dreams of crystal streams

    Am       C7/G     F
Of days gone by when we would lean

Fm7              Fm7/Eb         Dsus4 D7
Laughing fit to burst upon each other
[Verse]
      G                F6     C/E              G
I can see you, sitting eating,   apples in the evening

    Bm7                 Em      G7/D        C
The fruit juice flowing slowly, slowly, slowly

                          G
Down the bronze of your body

G             F6           C/E                    G
Living like a lusty flower,   running through the grass for hours

Bm7                 Em   G7/D  C                 G
Rolling through the hay, oh,    like a puppy child
[Chorus]
D                     A/C#
And when it rains the rain falls down

C                G
Washing out the cattle town

D             A/C#           C       G
And she's far away somewhere in her eiderdown

G#dim             Esus4      E7
And she dreams of crystal streams

    Am       C7/G     F
Of days gone by when we would lean

Fm7              Fm7/Eb         Dsus4 D7
Laughing fit to burst upon each other
[Verse]
      G            F6     C/E                      G
Oh if only I could nestle,   in the cradle of your cabin

   Bm7              Em         G7/D      C                G
My arms around your shoulders, whoa, the windows wide and open

          G               F6          C/E                    G
While the swallow and the sycamore, oh,   are playing in the valley

     Bm7          Em   G7/D   C               G
Oh I miss you Amoreena like a king bee misses honey
[Chorus]
D                     A/C#
And when it rains the rain falls down

C                G
Washing out the cattle town

D             A/C#           C       G
And she's far away somewhere in her eiderdown

G#dim             Esus4      E7
And she dreams of crystal streams

    Am       C7/G     F
Of days gone by when we would lean

Fm7              Fm7/Eb         Dsus4 D7
Laughing fit to burst upon each other

D                     A/C#
And when it rains the rain falls down

C                G
Washing out the cattle town

D             A/C#           C       G
And she's far away somewhere in her eiderdown

G#dim             Esus4      E7
And she dreams of crystal streams

    Am       C7/G     F
