Down at the church [B]the flower

[Verse 1]
[D]
girl [Em]sits. legs inno[B]cent, [A]apart.[Em]
I make the pic[B]ture [D]puzzle fit to
[B]start your [Em]heart.
Painted sister stopped [D]beside.
[Em]a word upon her saintly lip.[A]
[Em]Perhaps admonishing the [D]child
inside the [B]open slip.

[Verse 2]
[B][E]
I [Em]don't know where she might [Am]go
when she runs [D]home at [B]night.[Em]
It's for the best: I wouldn't [Am]rest when
I turned [D]out [D#dim]the light.[B][C]
No little [B]flower girl singing [C]in
my troubled [A]dream- [Em]- - -
Just an old man's [D]model in a
pose from a [B]magazine.

[Interlude 1]
[B][E][Em]

[Verse 3]
I have touched that face a dozen [D]times
[Em]before. and I have let my pencil [A]run.
[Em]Laid down washes on [D]a foreign shore,
under a [B]hot and foreign [Em]sun.
My best sable [D]brushes [Em]drift
the soft inside of her [A]arm.

[Verse 4]
[Em]Her chin I tilt,
her [D]breasts I lift. I [B]mean no [E]harm.

[Em]she [B]is no mo[Em]re u[Am]ntil
the [D]next appointed [B]hour.[Em]
Northeast[E]ern [Em]light push back [E]the night:[Am]
painted prom[D]ises in [D#dim]store.[C]
No little [B]flower girl singing [C]in
my troubled [A]dream- [Em]- - -
Just an old man's [D]model in a pose from a [B]magazine.

[Verse 6]
Down at the church my [D]flower girl [Em]sits. legs innocent,
[A]apart.[Em]
I make the picture [D]puzzle fit
to [B]start your [Em]heart.
My golden sable [D]brushes [Em]drift
the soft inside of her [A]arm.
[Em]Her chin I tilt,
her [D]breasts I lift. [B]I mean no harm.
I mean no harm. I mean
