[F] [Em] [G] Here she comes and there she goes
Nothing on [F] her finger, nothing on [Em] her toes
[D] Why she [Am] comes and nobody knows
The gum's [G] shaking, Nancy
Don't be believing
She [D] melts [G] in your hand
Runs with [Am] the tide and she shifts with the [C] sand
She [D] sends you a [C] message and [Am] turns to stone
She's a [G] hard girl, Nancy
One cold morning, ice on the sea
Shaking, [Am] Nancy, won't you [C] lean on me
This [D] means something, [Am] how can you lose
There's nothing to [G] choose here, Nancy
Oh, here she comes and there she goes
Nothing on her [F] finger, nothing [Em] on her toes
[D] Why she [Am] comes and [C] nobody knows
The gum's [G] shaking, Nancy
[D] Nancy [G]
[Am] [C]
[D] [C] [Am]
[G] went walking, she's gone for the day
When she [Am] comes back, she's been two [C] years away
There's still [D] tears [C] in [Am] her eyes
Who'll say a [G] prayer for Nancy
Here she comes and there she goes
[F] Nothing on her finger, nothing [Em] on her toes
[D] Why she [Am] comes and [C] nobody knows
The gum's [G] shaking, Nancy
You throw me a bundle, throw me a bone
And you throw [Am] what's left of me into [C] the hole
I'll [D] take a sleep, [C] I'll [Am] take a sleep
And I'll dream sweet [G] dreams of Nancy
Here she comes and there she goes
Nothing on [C] her finger, [Gm] nothing on her [Em] toes
[D] Why she [Am] comes and nobody knows
[Em] The gum's [G] shaking, Nancy
[D] [C] [F] [Em] [G]
