Verse:
       Am             D                  Am     D
Do you see them coming through fields of snow?
       Am             D                  Am     D
Do you see them riding through fields of snow?
    Am                    C            D
One rides for a woman who has no name
                F
One rides for a king
    C                  E7                  Am
And one just rides and rides and rides and rides
                           D  Am    F  Em
For the girl in the swing

Verse:
     Am                D               Am     D
They race like phantoms in the Belmont light
    Am             D           Am      D
You see them follow the Belmont light
     Am                            C
They ride through places where the walls are white
          D              F
Where the noble voices of women sing
  C                   E7        Am
A brace of thanks and silent night
                                      D  Am    F  Em
And a song for the girl in the swing

Verse:
      Am               D               Am       D
Well, you just asked me do I know what love is
      Am          D                 Am       D
Well, sure I know, sure I know what love is
         Am                C
It's the thief of sleep, a boy and his dog
  D                      F
A red rubber ball, these old foolish things
  C                 E7                  Am
A rain that falls a long, long way from home
                                   D  Am
It lives in the girl in the swing
                           F   Em  Am  D
It lives in the girl in the swing____
