Song Of The Old Rake Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

G D G

G Pretty child come here to me Listen to my story

D Won't you sit down on my Gknee

G Your eyes are like your mother's And your mother's mother's

D Deeper than the deep blue Gsea

C All them girls I Gused to love

D By the fire all aGlone I sit dreaming of

C All them girls I Gused to hold

D I made their love turn Gcold

These old bones are aching

These old hands are shaking

Lord I can't see the page

Sing me the song I taught you

Fetch my wine and water

Never thought I'd reach this stage

All them girls I used to know

Like a fool acting smart I let them go

All them girls a long time gone

I lost them one by one

All them girls with their creamy skin

What I'd give just to have one in my arms again

Oh my girl when you start to play

Don't give your heart away

All them girls I used to kiss

I don't know how my days all came down to this

All them girls I used to hold

I made their love turn cold

Oh my girl when you start to play

Don't give your heart away
