Verse2: (play verse 1 chords)

And then one day things weren't quite so fine
I fell in love with Lily
I asked my dad where Lily I could find He said
"Son now don't be silly
She's been dead since 1929"
Oh how I cried that night
If only I'd been born in Lily's time
It would have been alright

Repeat Chorus

Outro: (play bridge chords, first 2 lines)

For me and Lily are together in my dreams
And I ask you, hey mister have you ever seen
Pictures of Lily
