D - A/C# - C - G

G        F6    C/E        G
Lately I've been thinking how much I miss my lady
  Bm7      Em G7/D C         G
Amoreena's in the cornfield brightening the daybreak
G       F6      C/E          G
Living like a lusty flower, running through the grass for hours
Bm7         Em G7/D C     G
Rolling through the hay like a puppy child

D           A/C#
And when it rains the rain falls down
C        G
Washing out the cattle town
D       A/C#      C    G
And she's far away somewhere in her eiderdown
G#°        Esus4   E7
And she dreams of crystal streams
  Am    C7/G   F
Of days gone by when we would lean
Fm7       Fm7/Eb     Dsus4 D7
Laughing fit to burst upon each other

I can see you sitting eating apples in the evening
The fruit juice flowing slowly, slowly, slowly
Down the bronze of your body
Living like a lusty flower, running through the grass for hours
Rolling through the hay like a puppy child

And when it rains the rain falls down...

Oh if only I could nestle in the cradle of your cabin
My arms around your shoulders the windows wide and open
While the swallow and the sycamore are playing in the valley
Oh I miss you Amoreena like a king bee misses honey

And when it rains the rain falls down...

And when it rains the rain falls down...

G - F - C/E - G
G - F - C/E - G

Lately I've been thinking how much I miss my lady
Amoreena's in the cornfield brightening the daybreak
Living like a lusty flower, running through the grass for hours
Rolling through the hay like a puppy child
