Chords for 03 Tatiana Hargreaves 2013-01-18 One Morning In May

This next song I learned from Texas Gladden.
This song has a really interesting story.
It's called One Morning in May, and it's about _ _ _ a woman who has syphilis.
And they used to treat syphilis by giving the patient mercury,
and that would make them salivate a lot,
so they'd wrap them in white linen.
So this song is about that. _ _
[G] So now you know why I couldn't just do that in the second song.
I had to wait for the_
_ _ _ _ _ All right, One [C] Morning in May.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
As a young [G] girl, I used to seek pleasure.
_ _ _ [Cm] As [G] a young girl, I used to drink ale _ right out of the ale
and _ into the _ jailhouse, right out of a bar
and _ into [C] my grave. _ _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ Papa, come mama, [G] and sit [Gm] you down by me,
_ [C] sit [G] you down by me and pity my case.
My poor [C] head is _ _ [G] aching, my heart is breaking.
[C] My _ body's salivating _ [G] and I'm bound [C] to _ die. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [C] _
_ _ [G] A _ _ _ _ preacher to [Bb] come [Gm] and pray [G] for [Cm] me,
a doctor _ _ _ [F] to heal up [G] my [Bm] wounds.
[C] My poor head is aching, my [G] sad heart is breaking.
[Cm] My [Eb] body's salivating [Gm] and hell is [C] my doom. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] I _ [C] _ _ _ want _ three young ladies to bear up [G] my coffin.
I [C] want [Gm] four young ladies [Am] to carry [Bm] me on.
[Cm]
And each of [Eb] them carry a [Dm] bunch of [G] _ roses.
[Cm] They [Eb] are my body as [G] I [C] pass away. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ One morning, one morning, one morning in May,
I spot this young lady wrapped in white linen,
_ _ _ wrapped in white linen and cold as the glass.
