Key: D
Introduction:
D
I met her in Atlanta
G
She was a-dancing in a cafe
D
With a price tag on her body
A
And a tombstone in her eye
D
You could tell she was not happy
G
By the way she kept on staring
D
Past the other side of nowhere
A D
At a man she'd like to try.
G
And the make-up she had painted
Could not hide the youthful motions
D
Of her body
From the music or the crowd
G
With my right hand in my pocket
A
While she showed us
D
Everything the law allowed.
D
Twenty bucks an hour later
G
My one-bedroom apartment
A
I was feelin? weak
D
From all the seeds I'd sown
She was sweet, she was gentle
G
As she introduced my body
D
To some pleasures
It had never ever known.
G
When I woke up in the morning
She was a-laying there beside me
D
Like a kitten
A D
With her face turned to the sun
And a look of satisfaction
G
On her lips that made me wonder
A
If she ever felt ashamed
D
Of what we'd done.
D
So I left her in Atlanta
G
She was a-dancing in cafe
D
With a price tag on her body
A
And a tomestone in her eye
D
And I guess she still ain't happy
G
By the way she keeps on staring
D
Past the other side of nowhere.
