The Ballad of Lucy Jordan Chords by The Barra Macneils

[A] _ _ _ _ The _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ morning sun touched lightly on the [D] eyes of Lucy [A] Jordan
_ In a white suburban bedroom, _ in a white suburban [E] town
As she [A] lay beneath the covers, dreaming [D] of a thousand [A] lovers
_ Till the world [E] turned orange and the room went spinning [A] round
At _ _ _ [D]
the age of thirty-seven, _ [A] she realized
_ She'd never ride through Paris in a sports car
With the warm wind in her [E] hair _ _
So _ [A] she let the phone keep ringing _ [D] and sat there softly [A] singing
_ [E] Little [A] nursery rhymes she'd memorize [E] in her _ daddy's [A] easy chair
_ Her _ _ _ husband is off to work _ [D] and the kids were off to [A] school
And _ there were also my ways for [E] her to spend the day
She [A] could clean the house for _ hours [D] or rearrange the [A] flowers
Or run [E] naked through the shady streets
Screaming out _ [A] _ _ _
[D] at the age _ _ _ of thirty [A]-seven, she realized
_ She'd never ride through Paris in a sports car
With the warm wind in [E] her _ hair
_ So [A] she let the phone keep ringing _ [D] and sat there [A] softly singing
_ Little nursery [E] rhymes she'd memorize in her _ daddy's [A] easy chair
The _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
evening sun shines gently on [Dm] the eyes of [A] Lucy Jordan
On the rooftop _ where she climbed when the laughter grew [E] too _ loud
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] Then she bowed in curtsy to the man [D] who reached enough [A] but her his hand
And he led her [E] down to the long [A] white car that waited _ past the crowd
At [D] the age of thirty-seven, _ [A] she knew she'd found forever _
She rode along through Paris with the warm wind [E] in her _ hair _ _ _ _ _ _ _
