Intro
D E7 G D
[Verse]
E7
In the summerhouse, in the ornamental gardens
G D
Lavinia fell in love for the first time
E7
He was the gardeners son and he was really very nice
G D
He wrote her poetry and she learned every line
F#m G
He said he loved her, she said she loved him too
A/C# D
They'd keep it a secret, and only they would know
[Instrumental]
Bm E7 A7 D
[Verse]
E7
She went to Switzerland to a school for young ladies
G D
To study cordon bleu and conversation
E7
Her parents both agreed, because of mother's migraine headaches
G D
That she should stay a year and ease the tension
F#m
He said he'd wait for her
G A/C#
She said that when she came home, they would start again
D
And it would be the same
[Instrumental]
Bm E7 A7 D
[Verse]
E7
And when the year was up, it was the start of a season
G D
Lavinia soon returned to be a debutante
E7
And Mrs. Forsythe-Jones made lavish arrangements
G D
For a smart affair, she thought that's what she'd want
F#m G
She had a lovely dress of broderie anglaise
A/C# D
Was made in Paris by someone famous
[Instrumental]
Bm E7 A7 D
[Verse]
E7
She didn't notice him, he was standing in the garden
G D
In his working clothes, watching quietly
E7
He tried to catch her eye with a wave of his hand
G D
But she was surrounded by her fine society
[Instrumental]
F#m G A/C# D
[Verse]
E7
Lavinia's married now to a man of importance
G D
And she sees him just at weekends
E7
And in the summer months, she sits alone in the garden
G D
And what she sees of life is through a faded lens
F#m G
She reads her poetry, those few well worn pages
A/C# D
That may fall apart, she knows them all by heart
[Outro]
