Gordon Lightfoot - Make Way For The Lady
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[INTRO:] Am7
[VERSE 1:]
Some life I've been living, like a song in the night
D7
Good sounds every moment, good news and bright lights
Anytime I get lonesome
Am7 Em7 Am7
I just got to do the things right
[VERSE 2:]
Make way for the lady, you can do it my son
D7
Making hay with no gravy, brings the good folk down
Anytime you get lonely
Am7 Em7
You just got to turn it around
[INTERLUDE:] Am7 Em7 Am7 Em7 Am7
[VERSE 3:]
This life I've been given, it don't tell you no lies
D7
Could've been somewhat wasted, how could it be otherwise
When the sound of the laughter brought the tears in to my eyes
Am7 Em7 Am7
Make way for the lady, you can do it my son
[VERSE 4:]
Making hay with no gravy, gets the day's work done
D7
When a blue mood gets rolling, you just got to turn it around
Am7
Turn it around
[INSTRUMENTAL:] D Am7 Em7 Am7 D Am7 Em7 Am7
[VERSE 5:]
Shake hands with the father, the son and the holy ghost
D7
The impossible believers and the heavenly host
If you must do it better, you just got to do it the most
Am7 Em7 Am7
Make way for the lady, you can do it my son
[VERSE 6:]
Making hay with no gravy, brings all the good folk down
D7
When a blue moon starts rising, you just got to turn it around
Am7 D Am7 Em7
Turn it around
Am7 D Am7 Em7
Turn it around
Em7 Am7 D Am7 Em7
Make way for the lady and turn it around
