[Verse]
F#7
In the summerhouse, in the ornamental gardens
A E
Lavinia fell in love for the first time
F#7
He was the gardeners son and he was really very nice
A E
He wrote her poetry and she learned every line
G#m A
He said he loved her, she said she loved him too
B/D# E
They'd keep it a secret, and only they would know
[Instrumental]
C#m F#7 B7 E
[Verse]
F#7
She went to Switzerland to a school for young ladies
A E
To study cordon bleu and conversation
F#7
Her parents both agreed, because of mother's migraine headaches
A E
That she should stay a year and ease the tension
G#m
He said he'd wait for her
A B/D#
She said that when she came home, they would start again
E
And it would be the same
[Instrumental]
C#m F#7 B7 E
[Verse]
F#7
And when the year was up, it was the start of a season
A E
Lavinia soon returned to be a debutante
F#7
And Mrs. Forsythe-Jones made lavish arrangements
A E
For a smart affair, she thought that's what she'd want
G#m A
She had a lovely dress of broderie anglaise
B/D# E
Was made in Paris by someone famous
[Instrumental]
C#m F#7 B7 E
[Verse]
F#7
She didn't notice him, he was standing in the garden
A E
In his working clothes, watching quietly
F#7
He tried to catch her eye with a wave of his hand
A E
But she was surrounded by her fine society
[Instrumental]
G#m A B/D# E
[Verse]
F#7
Lavinia's married now to a man of importance
A E
And she sees him just at weekends
F#7
And in the summer months, she sits alone in the garden
A E
And what she sees of life is through a faded lens
G#m A
She reads her poetry, those few well worn pages
B/D# E
That may fall apart, she knows them all by heart
[Outro]
