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