Yankee Lady chords
Jesse Winchester

A Asus4 4x

AI (x02220@1)lived with the decent folks 
       D (xx0232@1)             AIn (x02220@1)the hills of old Vermont

Where what you do all day 
  EDepends (022100@1)on what you want 
      AAnd (x02220@1)I took up with a woman there 
       D (xx0232@1)           AThough (x02220@1)I was still a kid

And I smile like the sun 
                    E (022100@1)            A (x02220@1) A (x02220@1)name="chord_x02230@1">Asus4
To think of all the loving that we did

AShe (x02220@1)rose each morning and went to work 
        D (xx0232@1)              AAnd (x02220@1)she kept me with her pay

I was making sweet love all night 
    E (022100@1)                
And playing guitar all day 
          AAnd (x02220@1)I got apple cider and homemade bread 
   D (xx0232@1)            Ato (x02220@1)make a man say grace

And clean linens on my bed

And a warm feet fire place

D (xx0232@1)            AYankee (x02220@1)lady so good to me 
E (022100@1)                AYankee (x02220@1)lady just a memory

Your memory, that s enough for me

AAn (x02220@1)autumn walk on a country road 
       D (xx0232@1)             AWith (x02220@1)a million flaming trees

I was feeling uneasy 
                ECause (022100@1)there was winter in the breeze 
               AAnd (x02220@1)she said, "Oh Jesse, look over there, 
    D (xx0232@1)                 Athe (x02220@1)birds are southward bound 
AOh (x02220@1)Jesse, I'm so afraid

I left Vermont town 
       EWith (022100@1)a lift to Mexico
