Cherish The Ladies - Fair And Tender Ladies
[Intro]
C G C G
[Verse 1]
D G
Come all ye fair and tender ladies
C D Em C
Take warning how you court young men
D G Bm
They're like a star on a cloudy morning
C G/B Am
First they'll appear and then they're gone
[Verse 2]
D G
They'll tell to you some loving story
C D Em C
They'll swear to you their love is true
D G Bm
Straightway they'll go and court another
C G/B Am
And that's the love they had for you
[Verse 3]
D G
Oh, don't you remember our days of courting?
C D Em C
You told me that you love me the best
D G Bm
You could make me believe by the fall of your eyes
C G/B Am
That the sun rose in the west

C G C G (2x)
[Verse 4]
D G
If I had known before I courted
C D Em C
That love was such a killing thing
D G Bm
I'd lock my heart in a box of golden
C G/B Am
And fasten it with a silvery pin
[Verse 5]
D G
I wish I was a little sparrow
C D Em C
And I had wings and I could fly
D G Bm
I'd fly right home to my false true lover
C G/B Am
And when he'd ask, I would deny
[Verse 6]
D G
But I am not some little sparrow
C D Em C
And I've no wings and I can't fly
D G Bm
So I'll stay right here with my grief and sorrow
C G/B Am
And let my troubles pass me by
[Verse 7]
