_ _ _ _ _ I was nineteen when I come to town, Decoded the summer of love,
_ Burning babies, burning flags, The hawks against [A] the doves,
_ _ [E] And I took a job in a steamy, _ Down on Caldron Street,
_ Telling love that the laundry girl Was working [A] next to me,

So fine a breath of wind Might [A] blow her away,
_ _ [E] She was a lost [C#m] child, She [E] was running wild,
She said, as long as there's no price On [A] love I'll stay, _ _
[C#m] And you wouldn't want [B] me Any other [E] way,
_ _ _ Brown hair zigzagged round her face, And a look of half surprise,
Like a fox caught in the headlights, There was animal [A] in her eyes,

_ [E] _ _ _ _ We busked around the market towns, We picked for a down in Kent,
_ We could tinker pots and [F#] pans And knives [A] wherever we went,
_ [E] And I said that we might settle down, And get a few acres dug,
_ Fire burning in [F#] the hearth And babies [A] on the rug,

You might be lord of half the world, But you'll not earn [A] me as well,

And like a fool I let her run With the [A] ramblin' itch,

[C#m] So fine [E] a breath of wind Might [A] blow her away, _

Last year I heard she was sleeping out Down on the Derby beat,
_ White horse in her hip pocket, And a wolf's [A] hand at her feet, _
