G5      C5  C5   C5
She's a la-dy
C5    F5  
And I chanced to meet her
G5             C5
In my scufflin days
C5      C5    C5
She's a la-dy
F5                   G5
Hypnotized me there that day
A5         C5        F5
I came to play in my usual way, hey

D5          D5        D5
Floating along with a whimsical twinkling
   G5      G/f#        E5    A5
In her strange green eyes
D5             D5        D5
Linger with me. She said, 'Yes! '
      G5      G/f#     E5   A7add4   A5    G5
And, oh, the time did fly.

G5      C5  C5   C5
She's a la-dy
C5       F5
Give her time for she's
 G5                   C5
Allowed to change her mind
C5      C5    C5
She's a la-dy
F5                     G5
Happy to say she once was mine.
A5        C5       F5
Only some-times I remember old times
D5             D5            D5
And when she says, 'Can you guess, it's a dress
            G/f#    E5  A5   D5
You won't believe.
          D5       D5
Would you come zip me up
           G5      G/f#    E5
And button up my sleeve'.

    A5 A5     D5 D5
Oh, lady, lady of la-dies.
G5    G/f#       E5
I remember days that felt like
A7add4  A5      D5
It was raining daisies.
