[Abm] Once upon a time, [Gb]
[C] when the cold wind that blows,
When the cold [Fm] wind that blows in my [D] heart,
[Eb] Was a summer's breeze [Cm] and she'd meet [Fm] me in Chinatown for opium [Bb] and tea.
[Gm]
She always [Cm] brought me flowers, [Fm]
but I spent you those [Bb] old ballads,
Songs that [Eb]
I couldn't play.
[Cm] Every gyro day, [Fm]
you'd dress me like [Bb] a ladyboy,
[Eb] And take me high out of the way, don't let the [Cm] horse chase the new dealer away, [Fm] no.
If we make [Bb] love in the morning, I'd see your [Eb] eyes look like [E] two marbles in your head.
[A]
[D] But lady, don't you [B] fall backwards, [Em] come on and fall into [A] my arms.
[D] No, don't you [B] fall backwards, [Em] I wouldn't want for [A] you to come to any harm,
Or [D] tell me the darkness comes and I [Gb] will sing you a song,
Or [Em] I will love you forever, [A] or at least till morning comes.
[D] Oh lady, don't you fall backwards, [Em] come [A] on and fall [D] into my [Em] arms.
[A] Come on and fall into [D] my arms.
[Bm] [Em] Come on [A] and fall into [D] my arms.
[C] when the cold wind that blows,
When the cold [Fm] wind that blows in my [D] heart,
[Eb] Was a summer's breeze [Cm] and she'd meet [Fm] me in Chinatown for opium [Bb] and tea.
[Gm]
She always [Cm] brought me flowers, [Fm]
but I spent you those [Bb] old ballads,
Songs that [Eb]
I couldn't play.
[Cm] Every gyro day, [Fm]

[Eb] And take me high out of the way, don't let the [Cm] horse chase the new dealer away, [Fm] no.

Or [D] tell me the darkness comes and I [Gb] will sing you a song,
Or [Em] I will love you forever, [A] or at least till morning comes.
