E
The auctioneer said, I'm not through yet,
D B E
Here's a horse the likes of which you've never seen,
A D \ C# Bm F#m
And the straw hats in the sun, with a face beneath each one,
C\C# A Bm
Shown doubtful and the auctioneer got mean.
Bm A G F#
Do you think that you can find a horse like this every day?
Bm A G F#
I don't think there's any better on this earth,
Bm F# Bm
And the more you pay, the more it's worth.
E
Then out she came, a snow-white mare,
D B E
Prancin' and a dancin' in the silver sun,
A D \ C# Bm F#m
They watched her from behind, as she did her bump and grind,
C\C# A Bm
Walkin' naked, sad and graceful for their fun.
Bm A G F#
Oh how I wished I could afford that lady painted white,
Bm A G F#
B queen with high nobility of birth,
Bm F# Bm
But the more you pay, the more it's worth.
E
My pockets hung with empty blues,
D B E
Silent heels were standin' on my growin' pains,
A D \ C# Bm F#m
My bid was not too bad, two bits was all I had,
C\C# A Bm
And the stable boy just handed me the reins.
Bm A G F#
Well the gallery went wild, and the auctioneer half smiled,
Bm A G F#
What we don't sell we shoot or give away,
Bm F# Bm
'Cause the more you pay, the more it's worth.
C#m F#m C#m F#m
And where was the boy, who rode on her back,
C#m F#m B
With his arms holding tight round her neck?
C#m F#m
How tightly he clung,
C#m F#m
When they both were young,
D C# Bm
And fate had not let this poor girl be so
F#m
Disgraced.
