Fair Old Lady

Em

[Verse 1]
Em                     D            Em
As a fair old lady she opens up her eyes
C              G              D              Em
In her hands a steaming cup a feeling that’s got no price
Em                D          Em
See her grey hair shimmering bright
C            G                D                      Em
Sitting in a rocking chair in early morning’s hazy light

[Verse 2]
Em                        D               Em
I remember the day when I first earned my pay
C           G            D             Em
Down at the docks by the seaside cleaning up the quay
Em                           D            Em
I spent my time there and to tell you the truth
C                G          D         Em
Those were happy days in my long gone youth

[Chorus]
Em         G      D            Em
That's the town I love in many ways
Em         G            D        G
That's the town where I spend my days
C              G      D      G
Where warm sun shines from above
C             G          D    G
This fair old lady is my only love

[Interlude] (x2)
Em   G   C   Em
Em   C   D   Em

[Verse 3]
Em                          D        Em
When I returned home from a far away land
C              G          D               Em
I smell what I missed the flavour of this unique brand
Em                          D              Em
I hope that I never have to leave my loved wife
C              G            D       Em
In this rusted shady town I want to exhale my life

[Chorus]
Em         G      D            Em
That's the town I love in many ways
Em         G            D        G
That's the town where I spend my days
C              G      D      G
Where warm sun shines from above
C             G          D    G
This fair old lady is my only love

Em         G      D            Em
That's the town I love in many ways
Em         G            D        G
That's the town where I spend my days
C              G      D      G
Where warm sun shines from above
C             G          D    G
This fair old lady is my only love

[Interlude] (x2)
Em   G   C   Em
Em   C   D   Em

[Bridge]
Am                    Em     D
The clouds I saw them go and come
Am                   G                 D
A smile instead of a glass filled with rum
Am                Em        D
Down the midnight streets I hear
Am                      G     D
The church bell ringing in my ear
Am              Em           D
My day has come it’s my last breath
Am                G         D
Oh my lady what a wonderful death

[Chorus]
                                Em
That's the town I love in many ways
Em         G            D        G
That's the town where I spend my days
C              G      D      G
Where warm sun shines from above
C             G          D    G
This fair old lady is my only love

[Interlude] (x2)
Em   G   C   Em
Em   C   D   Em

[Outro]
C             G          D    G
This fair old lady is my only love
C             G          D    G
This fair old lady is my only love
C             G          D    G
This fair old lady is my only love
