Song Of The Old Rake Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
Pretty child come here to [G]me
Listen to my [D]story
Won't you sit down on my [G]knee
Your eyes are like your mother's
And your mother's [D]mother's
Deeper than the deep blue [G]sea
[C]All them girls

[Verse 2]
[G]I used to l[D]ove
By the fire all [G]alone I sit dreaming of
[C]All them girls [G]I used to h[D]old
I made their love turn [G]cold

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][G]

[Verse 3]
These old bones are [G]aching
These old hands are shak[D]ing
Lord I can't see [G]the page
Sing me the song I taught you
Fetch my wine and wa[D]ter
Never thought I'd reach this [G]stage

[Verse 4]
[C]
All them girls I [G]used to [D]know
Like a fool acting [G]smart I let them [C]go
All them girls a [G]long time [D]gone
I lost them one [G]by one

[Interlude 2]
[G][D][G]
[D][G]
[C]

[Verse 5]
All them [C]girls with their [G]creamy [D]skin
What I'd give just to [G]have
one in my arms [C]again
Oh my girl when you [G]start to [D]play
Don't give your heart away
[G]

[Verse 6]
[C]
All them girls I [G]used to [D]kiss
I don't know how my [G]days
all came down to [C]this
All them girls I [G]used to [D]hold
I made their love [G]turn cold

[Verse 7]
[C]
Oh my girl when you [G]start to [D]play
Don't give your heart away
[G]
