[C#m] It was late [E] in the evening, [A] just a few of [E] us picking,
[A] But the lady [E] she played [A] so easy [B] and fine, And [E] the chords that she strummed were [A] so [E] tastefully
clever, [C#m] They planted [G#m] this song in my [E] mind.
Cause there's something so feminine [A]
about [E] a mandolin,
[A] The way that they [E] feel, [A] the way that [B] they ring,
Just [E] to see slender fingers [A] moving so [E]
quickly, [C#] Made this [G#m]
[E] boy want to sing.

And when I get older [A] and I [E] have a daughter, [A]
I'll teach her [E] to sing, [A]
play her [B] my songs,
[E] And I'll tell her some stories [A] I can barely [E]
remember,
[F#m] And hope that [B] she will [E] sing along.
And maybe one day she'll [A] take a fancy [E] to picking,
[A] Cause when that [E] bug bites you, [A] you live [B] with the [G#m] sting.
[B] [E] And if she could just strum [A] a few simple [E] measures,
[F#m] She could [G#m] make some young [E] man sing.
Cause there's something so feminine [A]
about [E] a mandolin,
[A] The way that [E] they feel, [A] the way that [B] they ring,
And [E] that evening in a pasture [A] somewhere [E] near Austin,
[F#m] That mandolin [G#m]
made [E] me sing, [F#m] her mandolin [B]
made [F#m] me sing.
