The Ballad Of Miss Lily

Gm  D9  Cm  Gm  D9

           Gm
Well there never was a girl like lily
                                      D9
She was a pretty little heartbreak machine
          Cm                           Gm
She had a way to part a fool and his money
          D9
She was a lucky litte gambler's dream

        Gm
And she promised up the world and whatever
                                 D9
And she could get a man to do anything
           Cm                              Gm
And by the morning he'd be cleaned out and crawling on his knees
          D9
But every night he let some poor fool sing

          Gm
He said i may not be a rich man baby
                                 D9
But i'll tell you what i'm gonna do
          Cm                          Gm
I'm gonna take you out tonight in the city
          D9                    Gm  D9
I'm gonna spend all my money on you

              Gm
She'll take a seat up at the bar at around 7
                                        D9
And wait for some poor sucker stumbling by
               Cm                          Gm
Yea and she'll pull him in and drag him on under
                D9
And then she'll drown him in thoose big dark eyes

             Gm
And with the moonlight breaking through a litte crack in the sky
                                     D9
Well he was broken and the damage is done
             Cm                      Gm
He'd give up everything he had for a love that could never be
            D9
Yea he'd be screaming at the top of his lungs

          Gm
He said i may not be a rich man baby
                                 D9
But i'll tell you what i'm gonna do
          Cm                          Gm
I'm gonna take you out tonight in the city
          D9                    Gm  D9
I'm gonna spend all my money on you

             Gm
One day what came in to town some kind of big shot man
                                        D9
All full of swagger like some hollywood scene
           Cm                           Gm
I tried to tell him stay away from miss lily
             D9
That woman's trouble if you know what i mean

             Gm
Well he just laughed and said i think i can take care of myself
                                           D9
I said well don't pretend you haven't been warned
               Cm                            Gm
They found him walking in the morning by the side of the road
           Gm                      D9
Yea he was naked as the day he was born

          Gm
He said i may not be a rich man baby
                                 D9
But i'll tell you what i'm gonna do
          Cm                          Gm
I'm gonna take you out tonight in the city
          D9                    Gm  D9
I'm gonna spend all my money on you

          Gm
He said i may not be a rich man baby
                                 D9
But i'll tell you what i'm gonna do
          Cm                          Gm
I'm gonna take you out tonight in the city
          D9                    Gm  D9
I'm gonna spend all my money on you
