Sweet City Woman chords
The Stampeders 1971 (album Against The Grain)

Capo III (for banjo effect)*

E F#m F#m E 2x

          E                 F#m
Well, I'm on my way, to the city life
                                              E
To a pretty face that shines her light on the city nights

And I gotta catch a noon train
      F#m
Gotta be there on time
                                              E
Oh, it feels so good to know she waits at the end of the line

E                       F#m
Swee-ee-eet, sweet city woman
                                                  E
I can see your face, I can hear your voice, I can almost touch you
                        F#m
Swee-ee-eet, sweet city woman
                                       E
Oh, my banjo and me, we got a feel for singing, yeah, yeah,

E
Bon c'est bon, bon bon c'est bon, bon,
                         A    E
Bon c'est bon, bon, bon, bon, bon

Bon c'est, bon, bon bon ci'estbon, bon,
                         A    E

A  E        A  E        A  E
So long ma, so long pa, so long
A             E
Neighbors and friends

           E                    F#m
Like a country morning, all snuggled in dew
                                      E
Ah she's got a way to make a man feel shiny and new
                                   F#m
And she sings in the evening, oh familiar tunes
                                         E
And she feeds me love and tenderness and macaroons

E                       F#m
Swee-ee-eet, sweet city woman
                                                  E
I can see your face, I can hear your voice, I can almost touch you
                        F#m
Swee-ee-eet, sweet city woman
                                       E
Oh, my banjo and me, we got a feel for singing, yeah, yeah,
