[C]
Her name was Juliette, [Dm] and she lived in [G] the meadow by [C] a [G] [Am] river.
[F] [G]
[C] She touched me for a moment [Dm] with a look [G] that spoke to me of her [C] sweet love.
[G]
[F] [G]
[F] Then the woman that she [G] was drove [C] her [G] on with [Am] desperation,
and [F] I saw as she [G] went a most [C] hopeless [Am] situation.
[F] Oh, Joanne and the [Fm] man and [G] the time that made them both [C] run.
She was only a girl, [Dm] I know that well, [G] still I could [C] not see
[G]
[F] [G]
that [C] the hold that she had [Dm] was much stronger than [G] the love she felt [C] for [G] me.
[Am] [G]
By [F] [G]
[F] staying [G] with her, my [C] little bit of [Am] wisdom broke [F] down her [G] designs
like [C] a light [Dm] through a prism [G]
[F] into yellows [Fm] and blues [G] and a tune that I could not [C] have sung.
[Am] Though the essence is gone, [Dm] I have no tears to cry to her.
My only thoughts of [G] her are kind.
