Fairport Convention – Theodores Song (Guitar)

          G
He was an old broom maker

G
A medicine man

G
On an old boneshaker

        C
Back in nineteen thirty-nine

   G
No home to go to

G
Just the open road

G
Oxen borne

       C
But it never, ever showed

                       D
Bring me that old wristwatch

C                  D
Fix it, broke-down man

C
Trust me, I'm the man

          D     G
On me you can depend

G
He could hold the ocean

G
In the palm of his hand

G
What he calls emotion

         C
Let time slip like grains of sand

         G
When the music took him

G
To the streets in town

G
He could catch a picture

        C
For the price of half-a-crown

                       D
Bring me that old wristwatch

C                  D
Fix it, broke-down man

C
Trust me, I'm the man

          D     G
On me you can depend

                           D
Oh, bring me that old wristwatch

C                  D
Fix it, broke-down man

C
Trust me, I'm the man

          D     G
On me you can depend

G
Now his heart was broken

G
On a wedding day

G
Not a word was spoken

                 C
'Cause there was nothing left to say

      G
About how he whispered

G
How he went inside

G
And he never kissed her

     C
That day he lost his bride

                       D
Bring me that old wristwatch

C                  D
Fix it, broke-down man

C
Trust me, I'm the man

          D     G
On me you can depend

                           D
Oh, bring me that old wristwatch

C                  D
Fix it, broke-down man

C
Trust me, I'm the man

          D     G  C#m
On me you can depend

       G
Raggle-taggle gypsy

G
Raggle-taggle mind

G
That's our world, it saw him

      C
As he would not be confined

         G
It was a touch of emotion

G
That bids his wing

G
Through the lanes bicycled

     C
To a henhouse where he lived

                       D
Bring me that old wristwatch

C                  D
Fix it, broke-down man

C
Trust me, I'm the man

          D     G
On me you can depend

                           D
Oh, bring me that old wristwatch

C                  D
Fix it, broke-down man

C
Trust me, I'm the man

          D     G
On me you can depend

   C      D     G
On me you can depend

   C      D     G  C#m
On me you can depend
