I was walking down Rovner [B] Square, [E] not a cheer to the winner but a nip in the [B] air.
[F#]
[A] From the other direction [A] she was [E] calling my name.
[A] Could be an illusion but I [E] might as well try, [B] might as well try.
[E] She had rings on her fingers and [B] bells on her shoes.
[E] And I knew without asking she was [B] into the blues.
[A] She wore scarlet begonias tucked into [E] her curls.

[E] She was too fat to open and too [B] cool to bluff.
[A] As I picked up my matches and was closing [E] the door,
[A] I had one of those flashes, I'd been there [E] before, been there [B] before.

Still it turns out the way it does in [E] the song.

I had to learn the [B] hard way just to let her pass [E] by, let her pass [B] by.
