[E] [B] [A]
[E] I was walking round [B] Cloverdale Square
[A] [E] Not a chill to the winter but a dip to [B] the air
From
[A] the [E] other [B] direction [A] she was calling [E] my name
[A] It could be [E] an [B] illusion [A] but I might as [E] well try
[B] She
[E]
had rings on her fingers and belts on [B] her shoes
[A] And [E] I knew without asking she was [B] incredible
She
[A] wore [E] scarlet
[B] [A] begonias tucked into [E] her curls
[A] I knew [E] right away [B] she [A] was not like [E] other girls, [B] other girls
[E] [B]
[F#m] [E] In the thick of the evening when the feeling [B] got rough
[A] [E] She was too packed to open and too [B] cool to puff
[A] As I picked up [E] my [B] matches [A] and was closing [E] the door
[A] I had [E] one of those [B] fly [A] shoes I've been there [E]
before, been [B] there before
Well
[E] [F#] I ain't all right but I've never been [B] wrong
It never turns out [A] the way it does [E] in the sun
Once
[F#] in a while you get [B] shown the [F#] [B] light
And it's strange as the [A] faces when you look at [E] it right
[F#]
[A] [D] [A]
[B] [E] [B]
Well [E] there ain't nothing wrong with the way [B] she moves
Her [A]
[E] scarlet begonias are a touch [B] of nothing
And [A]
there's [E] nothing [B] wrong with [A] the look that's in [E] her eyes
[A] I had to [E] let the [B] heart of [A] faith in to let [E] her pass by, let [B] her pass by

The [G#m] [A]
[E] sky was yellow and the sun [B] was blue
[A]
Strangers stopping [E] [B]
[A] strangers just to [E] shake their heads
[A] [E] Everybody's [B]
[A] playing in the heart [E] of old Beth, the heart [B] of old Beth
