  Caught one more time, up on Cyprus Avenue

D MajorD                 C/GC/G

Not a thing that I can do

  I may go crazy, before that mansion on the hill

C/GC/G       G+G  C/GC/G        G+G
  I may go crazy, before that mansion on the hill

D MajorD               C/GC/G
  But my heart keeps beating faster

G+G C/GC/G        G+G     D MajorD
  And my feet can't keep still

  And all the little girls rhyme something, on the way back home from school

D MajorD              C/GC/G
  And the leaves fall one by one

           G+G     C/GC/G  G+G  D MajorD
And call the autumn time a fool

G+G             C/GC/G  G+G          C/GC/G        G+G
  Yeah, my t-tongue gets tied, every, every, every time I try to speak

C/GC/G           G+G       C/GC/G    G+G
  My tongue gets tied, every time I try to speak

D MajorD      D7D7 C/GC/G
  And my inside shakes

             G+G  C/GC/G  G+G  D MajorD
Just like a leaf on a tree

       G+G      C/GC/G             G+G  C/GC/G  G+G
I think I'll go on by the river with my cherry, cherry wine

         C/GC/G                       G+G C/GC/G G+G
I believe I'll go walking by the railroad with my cherry, cherry wine

   D MajorD             C/GC/G
If I pass the rumbling station

                 G+G  C/GC/G G+G       D MajorD
where the lonesome engine drivers pine,  wait a minute,

Verse 6:

       G+G   C/GC/G     G+G C/GC/G   G+G
yonder come my lady, rainbow ribbons in her hair

   C/GC/G                  G+G  C/GC/G G+G
Yonder come my lady, rainbow ribbons in her hair

     D MajorD          D7D7  C/GC/G
Six white horses and a carriage

               G+G C/GC/G   G+G           D MajorD
She's returning from the fair, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
