[Gsus2][Dsus4][Asus4][D][Asus4][D][Gsus2][Dsus4]
Well, [D]I was nineteen [G]when I [D]came to town
They call it the summer [Gsus2]of love[D]
They were burnin' [G]babies, [D]burnin' flags
The [A]hawks against [Dsus4]the doves
I [D]took a [G]job [Gsus2]in a steamy[D]
down on Caldron [Gsus2]Street
[D]I fell in love wit[G]h a lau[D]ndry girl
who was [A]workin' next to [Gsus2]me
[Dsus4]She was a[D] rare [Bm]thing,
fine [D]as a bee's wing
So [Bm]fine a breath of wind
[D]might [A]blow her away
[Dsus4]She was a los[D]t chil[Bm]d,
she [D]was running wild
She says as [Bm]long as there's now
[D]Bryce and Love [Bm]I'll [G]stay[Dsus4]
And I [Bm]wouldn't want her
[A]any other [Dsus4]way
[D]Brown her zigzagged round her face,
a look of half [G]-sur[D]prise
Like a fox caught [G]in the [D]headlights,
there was [A]animal in her [Gsus2]eye s[Dsus4]
She [D]says, young [G]man, [D]can't you see
I am not the factory kind
And if you don't [G]take me [D]out of here,
I'll [A]surely lose [Gsus2]my mind
She [G]was a [Bm]rare thing,
fine as a [D]bee's wing
So [Bm]fine that I might crush her
[D]where she [Dsus4]lay
She was a [Bm]lost child, she was [D]running wild
She says as [Bm]long as there's no [D]price
on [Bm]love I'll [G]stay[Gsus2][Dsus4]
And you [Bm]wouldn't want me
any [A]other [Gsus2]way[Dsus4]
Well we [D]bust around [G]the [D]market towns,
we pick fruit [G]down in [D]Kent
And we could [G]take our [D]lamps and pots,
[A]nicer ever [G]we went
I [D]said that [G]we might settle [D]down,
get a [G]few acres [D]dug
Fire burn[G]ing [D]in the heart
and [A]babies on [G]the rug
She [D]says, oh man, [G]you [D]foolish man,
that surely sound[G]s like [D]hell
Well, you might be lord [G]of
[D]half the world
But you'll [A]not own me [D]as [Gsus2]well[G]
[Gsus2]She was a[Bm] rare thing,
fine as a [D]bee's wing
So [Bm]fine a breath of wind
[D]might blow her [Dsus4]away
She [D]was a [Bm]lost child,
she was [D]running wild
She says as [Bm]long as there's no [A]price
on love [Bm]I'll [G]stay,[Dsus4]
and you [Bm]wouldn't want me [A]any other [Gsus2]way[Dsus4]

[D][Dsus4][D][A][D]
We was camping [G]down the Gower [D]one time,
the work was [Gsus2]pretty good
[D]She thought we should
[G]n't wait [D]for the frost,
[A]thought maybe we [Dsus4]should
We [D]was drinking [G]more in [D]those days
and tempers [G]reached a [D]pitch
Like a [G]fool I [D]let her run with
[A]that rambling [D]itch[Dsus4]
At last [D]I heard s[G]he's s[D]leeping rough,
back in [G]the derby [D]beat
White horse [G]in her hip [D]pockets
and a [A]wolf hound at her [Gsus2]feet
[Dsus4]And they say she e[D]ven [G]married o[D]nce
a man named Ro[G]many [D]Brown
But even a [Dsus4]gypsy's c[D]aravan
was [A]too much set[D]tling down
[Gsus2][G][Gsus2][Dsus4]
And they [D]say our [G]flower's faded [D]now,
hard weather [G]and hard [D]blues
But maybe it's just [Dsus4]the
[D]price you pay
for the [A]change you re[G]fuse
[Dsus4]She was a[D] rare [Bm]thing,
fine as a [D]bee's wing
And I [Bm]miss her more than [A]ever
[D]words could [Dsus4]say
If I could [Bm]just taste all [A]of her [D]wildness now
If [Bm]I could hold her in[D]
[A]my arm[D]s t[Gsus2]oday
[Dsus4]Well, I w[D]ouldn[Bm]'t want her any ot[A]her way yo[Dsus4]u[D][A][Dsus4][D][Dsus4][D][A][Gsus2][Dsus4][D][Dsus4][G][D]
