The Great Park - Lover O Lover


Verse 1:
            Am
Well I Was Walking My Lover My Lover Back Home
      Dm                       E
We Stopped At The Old Oak To Pick Up The Bones
          Am
And She Said To Me You Dear You Cannot Be True
       Dm                       E
You Cannot Be Trusted And I Cannot Marry You


Verse 2:
          Am
But I'd Sold All My Fingers My Thumbs And My Toes
       Dm                   E
And I Got Me A Pocket Of Silver And Gold
          Am
And They Unrolled My Collar From Around My Neck
        Dm                      E
And I Winked With The One Good Eye I Had Left

Verse 3:
          Am
I Said Lover Oh Lover Oh What Do You Know
             Dm                 E
I've Been Ten Thousand Miles Away From My Home
         Am
And I Walk With You Now With No Ease In My Legs
     Dm                            E
No Pleasure To Be Found There No Spring In My Step


Verse 4:
         Am
And I'd Fixed Up A Coffin And I Nailed Down The Lid
            Dm                         E
While She Hitched Up Her Dress And I Climbed Underneath
        Am
And I Laid Down There Upon The Good Book
  Dm                     E
Upon The Good Word The Good The Good And The Good


Interlude:
Am Dm E


Verse 5:
           Am
And I Was Cruel When I Could Be And Kind When I Had To Be
  Dm                     E
Taking As Much As Good Folk Would Allow Me
    Am
But Oh My Oh My Oh Why Oh Why
 Dm                  E
Why Does The Blood Flow So Fine


Verse 6:
          Am
When I'm Low On A Slow Train Stupid With Dumb Pain
 Dm                         E                Am
Miles From You And Won't Leave You Again I Swear It
      Dm                              E                      Am
Oh I Know It's Not True But What Can One Do With A Lie But Tell It
      Dm                              E                      Am
Oh I Know It's Not True But What Can One Do With A Lie But Tell It
