Verse
F
I was 18 when I came to town they called it the summer of love
F C A#
Burnin' babies burnin' flags the hawks against the dove
F
I took a job at the steaming way down on Caltrim Street
F C A#
Fell in love with a laundry girl that was workin' next to me
F
Brown hair zig-zagged around her face and a look of half surprise
F C A#
Like a fox caught in the headlights there was animal in her eyes
F
She said to me can’t you see I’m not the factory kind
F C A#
If you don’t take me out of here I’ll lose my mind
[Chorus]
Dm F
She was a rare thing fine as a bee’s wing
Dm C A#
So fine a breath of wind might blow her away
Dm F
She was a lost child, she was runnin’ wild (she said)
Dm C A#
So long as theres no price on love I’ll stay
Gm C A#
You wouldn’t want me any other way
[Verse 2]
F
We busked around the market towns fruit pickin down in Kent
F C A#
We could tinker pots and pans or knives wherever we went
F
We were campin down the Gower, the work was mighty good
F C A#
She wouldn’t wait for the harvest, I thought we should
F
I said to her we’ll settle down, get a few acres dug
F C A#
With a fire burning in the hearth and babbies on the rug
Dm C F
She said Oh man you foolish man that surely sounds like hell
A# F C A#
You might be lord of half the world, you’ll not own me as well
[Chorus]
Dm F
She was a rare thing fine as a bee’s wing
Dm C A#
So fine a breath of wind might blow her away
Dm F
She was a lost child, she was runnin’ wild (she said)
Dm C A#
So long as theres no price on love I’ll stay
Gm C A#
You wouldn’t want me any other way
[Verse 3]
F
We were drinking more in those days our tempers reached a pitch
F C A#
Like a fool I let her run away when she took the rambling itch
F
Last I heard she was living rough back on the Derby beat
F C A#
G bottle of White Horse in her pocket, a Wolfhound at her feet
F
They say that she got married once to a man called Romany Brown
F C A#
Even a gypsy caravan was too much like settlin’ down
Dm C F
They say her rose has faded, rough weather and hard booze
A# F C A#
Maybe thats the price you pay for the chains that you refuse
[Chorus]
Dm F
She was a rare thing, fine as a bee’s wing
Dm C A#
I miss her more than ever words can say
Dm F
If I could just taste all of her wildness now
Dm C A#
If I could hold her in my arms today
Gm C A#
I wouldn’t want her any other way
