[Verse 1]
[G]She went from Cape to [D]Cairo

[G]She drinks her Tan[Am]queray
But it's [G]Main[Em]stay for [C]me-o
[D]My [G]My heart and soul are[D] hardened
[G]I built the Hanging Garden[Am]s
[D]I let my tea[C]rs flow
I [G]let my [Em]tears [C]flow, [D]oh[Am]
What [C]bitter [Em]stuff[D]
[G]Don't

[G]I want more of this bit[D]ter stuff
[Em]You'[D]ll see me sw[Am]aying
[C]as you're [D]praying for my fall
[G]I try

to understand [D]her
[Bm]Outside on the blue [G]veranda[Am]

[Am]It's [G]a measure [Em]of my w[C]orth[D]

makes the feeling [D]purer
[Bm]With a dash of A[C]ngostura
[G]I've learned the art
