G A7 C G
[Verse]
A7
In the summerhouse, in the ornamental gardens
C G
Lavinia fell in love for the first time
A7
He was the gardeners son and he was really very nice
C G
He wrote her poetry and she learned every line
Bm C
He said he loved her, she said she loved him too
D/F# G
They'd keep it a secret, and only they would know
[Instrumental]
Em A7 D7 G
[Verse]
A7
She went to Switzerland to a school for young ladies
C G
To study cordon bleu and conversation
A7
Her parents both agreed, because of mother's migraine headaches
C G
That she should stay a year and ease the tension
Bm
He said he'd wait for her
C D/F#
She said that when she came home, they would start again
G
And it would be the same
[Instrumental]
Em A7 D7 G
[Verse]
A7
And when the year was up, it was the start of a season
C G
Lavinia soon returned to be a debutante
A7
And Mrs. Forsythe-Jones made lavish arrangements
C G
For a smart affair, she thought that's what she'd want
Bm C
She had a lovely dress of broderie anglaise
D/F# G
Was made in Paris by someone famous
[Instrumental]
Em A7 D7 G
[Verse]
A7
She didn't notice him, he was standing in the garden
C G
In his working clothes, watching quietly
A7
He tried to catch her eye with a wave of his hand
C G
But she was surrounded by her fine society
[Instrumental]
Bm C D/F# G
[Verse]
A7
Lavinia's married now to a man of importance
C G
And she sees him just at weekends
A7
And in the summer months, she sits alone in the garden
C G
And what she sees of life is through a faded lens
Bm C
She reads her poetry, those few well worn pages
D/F# G
That may fall apart, she knows them all by heart
[Outro]
