[Intro]
Bm9 E6/9 X2
[Verse 1]
Bm9 E6/9 She was something very special to me Bm9 E6/9 The kind of girl you'd like to see Bm9 E6/9 In a movie or a rosary Bm9 She could be straight-laced or homespun E6/9 Bm9 Or free and easy on the run E6/9 She could be meek and mild or full of fun
Bm9 E6/9
[Verse 2]
Bm9 E6/9 She liked country lanes and aeroplanes Bm9 E6/9 And cigarettes would make her strange Bm9 E6/9 And when she wanted you she made it plain Bm9 E6/9 She would never say where she came from Bm9 E6/9 It didn't seem that she had anyone Bm9 E6/9 To answer to or dwell upon
Bm9
[Verse 3]
E6/9 She liked candlelight and good wine Bm9 E6/9 And I would call her any time Bm9 E6/9 Of day or night, she didn't mind Bm9 E6/9 There was nothing that I wouldn't do Bm9 E6/9 To prove to her my love was true Bm9 E6/9 And she gave to me a dream or two
Bm6 E6/9
[Verse 4]
Bm6 E6/9 There were times when she would never appear Bm6 E6/9 For days on end she'd disappear Bm9 E6/9 But now the days have turned to years Bm9 E6/9 I was something she could use Bm9 E6/9 Like a good friend or a pair of shoes Bm9 E6/9 Or any kind of good news
Bm9 E6/9 Bm9
[Verse 5]
E6/9 Now the eastern sky is crimson and red Bm9 E6/9 As I lie here in my lonely bed Bm9 E6/9 And think about the things she said Bm9 E6/9 She said, "Darling, there will come a day Bm9 E6/9 When I must run far away Bm9 E6/9 I will go, my love, but you must stay"
Bm9 E6/9 Bm9
[Verse 6]
E6/9 She departed in the early spring Bm6 E6/9 She didn't leave me anything Bm9 E6/9 To follow or to find her Bm6 E6/9 She was something very special to me Bm6 E6/9 The kind of girl you'd like to see Bm9 E6/9 In a movie or a rosary
