DEEP PURPLE - Anyone's Daughter
(Blackmore/Gillan/Glover/Lord/Paice)
>From "Fireball", 1971
Transcription by Kartsa Ahokas
------------------------------------

G
Well, I stood under your bedroom window
Throwing up a brick
No one came I threw one more
That really did the trick
Your daddy came and banged my head
He said what kind of man
Is this that's hanging 'round my girl
And threw me in the car

         Em
You're a farmer's daughter
You're a farmer's daughter
Why do I always get
The kinda girl I didn't oughta get
C                   G/B
I won't get no more eggs and water
Am                Em
Now I've laid the farmer's daughter

    (piano break in G, same chords as above)

G
Imagine I was a full-grown man
And I could talk just right
Could I come and see you here
And do this every night
Wham!  The door comes crashing down
Your daddy's face all pale
Says come with me you hairy bum
I'll put you in my jail

         Em
You're a judge's daughter
You're a judge's daughter
Why do I always get
The kinda girl I didn't oughta get
C               G/B
Now I'm getting jail and torture
Am                 Em
'Cause I made the judge's daughter
(Spoken: Yes I did. It was nice.)

(guitar break)

C                          G/B
It seems they're screaming law and order
Am             Em
When I go with anyone's daughter

G
Woman I should like some peace
And daddy hold your tongue
I think you're gonna die of fright
When I tell you what I've done
I can hear your tales and lies
You say I'm dumb and scraggy
But man this dumb and scraggy is
Your daughter's baby's daddy

       Em
She's a lucky daughter
Such a lucky daughter
Why did I always get
The kinda girl I didn't wanna get
C                   G/B
Now I've got what I always fought for
Am                    Em
'Cause I've married a rich man's daughter
(Spoken: Waddaya think of that?)

This little gem was drawn out of some dusty closet for their 1993 tour, and
has been kept in their show on the current (1994) tour with Satriani
replacing Blackmore on guitar.                         - Trond.
