[F][C][Am][G][C]

[Verse 1]
I'm a [C]stone's throw from the mill
And I'm a [F]good walk to the [C]river
When my [F]workin' day is [C]over
We'll go [Am]swim our [G]cares [C]away
Put your [C]toes down in the water
And a [F]smile across [C]your face
And [F]tell me that you [C]love me
[Am]Lovely [G]Lady [C]May

[Chorus 1]
Now I [Am]ain't the [G]sharpest [C]chisel
That your [F]hands have ever [C]held
But [Am]darlin' I could [G]love [C]you well
Til' the [F]roll is called [C]on high
I've [Am]seen my [G]share of [C]trouble
And I've [F]held my weight [C]in shame
But I'm [F]baptized in [C]your name
[Am]Lovely [G]Lady [C]May

[Verse 2]
Lord, the [C]wind can leave you shiverin'
As it [F]waltzes o'er the [C]leaves
It's been [Am]rushin' [G]through my [C]timber
Til' your [F]love brought on the [C]spring
Now the [C]mountains all are blushin'
And they [F]don't know what to [C]say
'Cept a [Am]good long [G]line of [C]praises
For my [F]Lovely Lady [C]May

[Chorus 2]
Now I [Am]ain't the [G]toughest [C]hickory
That your [F]ax has ever [C]felled
But I'm [F]hickory just as [C]well
I'm a [Am]hickory [G]all the [C]same
I came [Am]crashin' [G]through the [C]forest
As you [F]cut my roots [C]away
And I [F]fell a good [C]long ways
For my [Am]lovely [G]Lady [C]May

[Outro 1]
