Subject: CRD:Yankee Lady Jesse Winchester Chords/Lyrics
Jesse Winchester Yankee Lady written by Jesse Winchester
A
I lived with the decent folks
D A
In the hills of old Vermont
A
Where what you do all day
E
Depends on what you want
A
And I took up with a woman there
D A
Though I was still a kid
A
And I smile like the sun
E A
To think of all the loving that we did
A
She rose each morning and went off to work
D A
And she kept me with her pay
A
I was making sweet love all night
E A
And playing this old guitar all day
A
And I got apple cider and homemade bread
D A
That would make a man kneel down he would say grace
A
And clean linens on our bed
E A
And a warm feet fire place
D A
Yankee lady so good to me
E A
Yankee lady just a memory
D A
Yankee lady so good to me
E A
Your memories gonna have to do for me
A
An autumn walk on a old country road
D A
With a million flaming trees
A
I was feeling a little uneasy
E
Cause there was winter chill in the breeze
A
And she said, "Oh Jesse, look over there,
D A
I see birds are they are all southward bound
A
Oh Jesse, I'm so afraid
E A
We are going to lose the love that we've found
D A
Yankee lady so good to me
E A
Yankee lady just a memory
D A
Yankee lady so good to me
E A
Your memories gonna have to do for me
A
I don't know what called to me
D A
But I know that I plain had to go
A
I left that little old Vermont town
E
To live down in sunny Mexico
A
And now when I can see myself
D A
As a stranger by my birth
A
The Yankee lady's old memory
E A
To Remind me of my worth
D A
Yankee lady so good to me
E A
Yankee lady just a memory
D A
Yankee lady so good to me
E A
Your memories gonna have to do for me
