G7      C  C/B   C/A
She's a la-dy
C/G    F  
And I chanced to meet her
G7             C
In my scufflin days
C/B      C/A    C/G
She's a la-dy
F                   G7
Hypnotized me there that day
Am         C/G        F
I came to play in my usual way, hey

D          D7M        D7
Floating along with a whimsical twinkling
   G      G/f#        Em7    A7
In her strange green eyes
D             D7M        D7
Linger with me. She said, 'Yes! '
      G      G/f#     Em7   A7add4   A7    G74
And, oh, the time did fly.

G7      C  C/B   C/A
She's a la-dy
C/G       F
Give her time for she's
 G7                   C
Allowed to change her mind
C/B      C/A    C/G
She's a la-dy
F                     G7
Happy to say she once was mine.
Am        C/G       F
Only some-times I remember old times
D             D7M            D7
And when she says, 'Can you guess, it's a dress
            G/f#    Em7  A7   D
You won't believe.
          D7M       D7
Would you come zip me up
           G      G/f#    Em7
And button up my sleeve'.

    A74 A7     D4 D
Oh, lady, lady of la-dies.
G    G/f#       Em7
I remember days that felt like
A7add4  A7      D
It was raining daisies.
