[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Unison] |
Slowly
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Fourth] I met a |
[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Unison] girl who |
[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Major Second] sang the blues |
And |
[AmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Perfect Fifth] I asked her for some |
[CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Minor Seventh] happy news, |
but |
[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Major Second] she just smiled and turned a- |
[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Unison] way |
I |
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Fourth] went down |
[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Unison] to the |
[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Major Second] sacred store |
[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Major Second] Where I'd |
[AmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Perfect Fifth] heard the music |
[CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Minor Seventh] years before, |
but the |
[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Major Second] man there said the |
[CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Minor Seventh] music wouldn't |
[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Unison] play |
But |
[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Major Second] in the streets the |
[AmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Perfect Fifth] children screamed, |
the |
[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Major Second] lovers cried and the |
[AmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Perfect Fifth] poets dreamed |
But |
[CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Minor Seventh] not a |
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Fourth] word was |
[AmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Perfect Fifth] spoken, |
the |
[CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Minor Seventh] church bells all were |
[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Unison] broken |
[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Unison] And the |
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Fourth] three men |
[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Unison] I ad- |

[CMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Minor Seventh] Son, and the |
[D7Dominant 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7) on the Perfect Unison] Holy Ghost |
They |
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Fourth] caught the |
[DMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Unison] last train |
[EmMinor Chord (U,m3,P5) on the Major Second] for the coast |
the |
[Am7Minor 7th Chord (U,m3,P5,m7) on the Perfect Fifth] day the |
[D7Dominant 7th Chord (U,M3,P5,m7) on the Perfect Unison] music |
[GMajor Chord (U,M3,P5) on the Perfect Fourth] died... And they were singin' |
