Intro
F G7 A# F
[Verse]
G7
In the summerhouse, in the ornamental gardens
A# F
Lavinia fell in love for the first time
G7
He was the gardeners son and he was really very nice
A# F
He wrote her poetry and she learned every line
Am A#
He said he loved her, she said she loved him too
C/E F
They'd keep it a secret, and only they would know
[Instrumental]
Dm G7 C7 F
[Verse]
G7
She went to Switzerland to a school for young ladies
A# F
To study cordon bleu and conversation
G7
Her parents both agreed, because of mother's migraine headaches
A# F
That she should stay a year and ease the tension
Am
He said he'd wait for her
A# C/E
She said that when she came home, they would start again
F
And it would be the same
[Instrumental]
Dm G7 C7 F
[Verse]
G7
And when the year was up, it was the start of a season
A# F
Lavinia soon returned to be a debutante
G7
And Mrs. Forsythe-Jones made lavish arrangements
A# F
For a smart affair, she thought that's what she'd want
Am A#
She had a lovely dress of broderie anglaise
C/E F
Was made in Paris by someone famous
[Instrumental]
Dm G7 C7 F
[Verse]
G7
She didn't notice him, he was standing in the garden
A# F
In his working clothes, watching quietly
G7
He tried to catch her eye with a wave of his hand
A# F
But she was surrounded by her fine society
[Instrumental]
Am A# C/E F
[Verse]
G7
Lavinia's married now to a man of importance
A# F
And she sees him just at weekends
G7
And in the summer months, she sits alone in the garden
A# F
And what she sees of life is through a faded lens
Am A#
She reads her poetry, those few well worn pages
C/E F
That may fall apart, she knows them all by heart
[Outro]
