Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]I'm rea[D]lly sor[G]ry, Steven,
[A]but[D] your b[F#]icycle's been stolen[Bm].[G]
I was [D]watching it for you 'til
[E]you came back in [G]the fall.
I guess I [E]didn't do such a good job af[G]ter all.
I was [D]feeling really [G]sorry, Steven,
[A]and[D] I spen[F#]t all morning grieving.
[Bm]And[G]

[Verse 2]
[D]everybody's saying that
you'll [E]take the news grace[G]fully.
Somehow, I [E]don't think I'll be
getting off that easily.
[G][A]

[Verse 3]
[Bm]
I meant her no [G]harm when I [D]left her unlocked
outside the [F#]Orange Street Food [Bm]Farm.
I was just running in[G],
didn't think I'd be that [D]long.[A][Bm]
I came back, she was [G]gone and [D]all that was
there was some [F#]bored old [Bm]dog,
Leashed up to the [G]place where
your bicycle had [D]been.
I guess we'll [G]never see [A]poor [D]Madelline again.
[G][A][D]

[Verse 4]
this be consol[G]ation, Steven,
[A]tha[D]t all th[F#]e while you were in England[Bm],[G]
[D]I treated her with care and respect
[E]and gave her lots of lov[G]e,
And I was [E]usually pretty good 'bout lock
[G]ing her [Bm]up. Where has she [G]gone?
Well, I bet [D]she's on the bottom of the [F#]French Town Pond,
[Bm]rudely abused [G]on some heshner's jo[D]y ride[A].
[Bm]So I wrote you this song[G] in the hope[D]s that you'd
forgive me even [F#]though it was [Bm]wrong,
Being so care[G]less with a thing so [D]great and [G]taking your
poor [A]Madeline [D]awa[G]y.[A][D]
