Lady May Ukulele chords by Tyler Childers

🎸 Intro:

C/G F C/G F C/G Am B/C C/G



🎸 Verse :

C
I'm a stone's throw from the mill
     F            C/G
And I'm a good walk to the river
    F        C/G
When my workin' day is over
       Am    B/C  C/G
We'll go swim our cares away
C/G
Put your toes down in the water
    F            C/G
And a smile across your face
    F          C/G
And tell me that you love me
Am     B/C  C/G
Lovely Lady May

🎸 Chorus:

    Am       B/C     C/G
Now I ain't the sharpest chisel
       F        C/G
That your hands have ever held
  Am              B/C    C/G
But darlin' I could love you well
       F             C/G
Til' the roll is called on high
   Am      B/C    C/G
I've seen my share of trouble
     F            C/G
And I've held my weight in shame
     Am      B/C     C/G
But I'm baptized in your name
F       C/G
Lovely Lady May

C/G F C/G F C/G A B/C C/G



🎸 Verse :

C
Lord the wind can leave you shiverin'
    F           C/G
As it waltzes o'er the leaves
       Am      B/C      C/G
It's been rushin' through my timber
       F            C/G
Til' your love brought on the spring
C/G
Now the mountains all are blushin'
     F            C/G
And they don't know what to say
     Am      B/C     C/G
'Cept a good long line of praises
     F      C/G
For my lovely Lady May

🎸 Chorus:

   Am         B/C    C
Now I ain't the toughest hickory
       F       C/G
That your ax has ever fell
     F           C/G
But I'm a hickory just as well
     Am     B/C     C
I'm a hickory all the same
      Am     B/C       C
I came crashin' through the forest
    F       C/G
As you cut my roots away
   Am      B/C      C/G
And I fell a good long ways
    F       C/G
For my lovely Lady May



Notes:
