[B]
[E] I was walking down Ruppert Duff [B] Square,
[G#m] [E] not a chill to the winter but nip to [B] the air.
[Am] From another [E] direction, [A] she was caught in [E] my eye.
[A]
It did [E] bring an illusion, [A] but I might as well [E] try.
[B]
[E] She had rings on her fingers and bells on her [B] shoes.
[E] And I knew without asking she was in the [B] blues.
[A] She was frolic [E] with loneliness, [A] sucked into [E] her throes.
[A] I knew right [E] away she [A] was not like her other [E] girls.
[B]
Well I [F#] ain't never been right as I ain't never been [B] wrong.
As heaven would sound the [A] way it does in [E] this song.
[F#] Cause once in a while you can show it in the light [B] in the strangest of places [A] if you look [E] at it right.

[G#m] [B]
[C#m]
It [B]
was the summer of [E] love and I think the stars above [B] me cause the woman took a loving over [D#] me.
[E] In just to gain her trust I bought a micro bus [B] because I sold up all my personal property.
[A] A tie-tied, dyed dress, she [E] was a psychedelic mess.
[A] We toured through the [E] north, south, east and west.
[A] We sold some mushroom tea, [E] we sold some ecstasy, [A] we sold nitrous, opium, arsenic, [E] heroin and [B] PCP.
And now I hear the police coming after [C#m] me.
Yes [B] now I hear the police coming after me.
The one starlit with the [F#m] flowers in her hair, she's got [B] the police coming after [C#] me.
Well [E] there ain't nothing wrong with the way she [B] moves.
All [E] starlit, but girl she ain't a touch of the [B] blues.
[A] And there ain't [E] nothing wrong if [A] the love that's [E] in her eyes.
[A] I had to love [E] the heart of [A] me just to let it [E] pass by.
Just to let it [B] pass by.
Oh just [G] to let it pass by.
