Chords for Dr Hook & The Medicine Show - "The Ballad Of Lucy Jordon"

[Ab] _ [F] The morning sun touched lightly on [Gm] the eyes of [Bbm] Lucy [F] Jordan _
In her white suburban bedroom, _ [C] in her white suburban town
_ [F] As she lay there beneath the covers, _ [Bb] dreaming of a thousand [F] lovers
She looked up [C] to the world down to arms, _ and the room [Gm] went [F] spinning round
_ [C]
[Bb] At the age of thirty-seven, _ _ she [F] realized she'd never ride her bike
In a sports car with the warm wind [C] in her _ hair
_ [Gm] _ _ [F] _
She picked up the phone and she rang it, and she [Bb] sat there [F] softly singing
_ Pretty [C] nursery rhymes she'd memorized in [Bb] her bedding
_ [F] _
Her _ _ _ _ _ husband, he was off to work, and [Gm] the [Bb] kids were off to [F] school
And _ there were oh so many ways for [C] her to spend the day
She [F] could clean the house for hours, _ [Bb] or rearrange the [F] flowers, _ or [C] run naked
Down the city street, _ screaming all [Fm] the way
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
[F] She realized _ she'd never ride her bike
In a sports car with the warm wind in [C] her hair _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [C] [F] And she left that phone and she rang it, and [Bb] she sat there softly [F] singing
Pretty [C] nursery rhymes she'd memorized in [Bb] her bedding
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ And there were oh _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ so [Bb] _ _ many ways for her [F] to spend [C] the day
She could clean the house for hours, or rearrange the flowers, or run naked
Down the city street, screaming all the way
She got out of town to the long white car, then waded [F] past the crowd _
[Bb] She _ turned around to [F] move, she found breath
_ And rode along through Paris with the warm wind _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
in [C] her _ hair
_ _ _ _ [F] _
Yeah _ _ _ _ _
