[Intro]
| D | A | G | Asus4 A |
| D | A | G | Asus4 A |
[Verse 1]
D A G Asus4 A
With your mercury mouth in the missionary times
D A G Asus4 A
And your eyes like smoke and your prayers like rhymes
G D Em7 A7 D
And your silver cross, and your voice like chimes
D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
Oh, who do they think could bu- ury you?
[Verse 2]
D A G Asus4 A
With your pockets well protected at last
D A G Asus4 A
And your streetcar visions which you place on the grass
G D Em7 A7 D
And your flesh like silk, and your face like glass
D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
Who could they get to carry you?
[Chorus]
Em D A
Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands
Em D | A | A7 |
Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes
D A G D G D Asus4 A | A |
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums
Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
Should I put them by your gate
Em | D | % |
Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
[Verse 3]
D A G Asus4 A
With your sheets like metal and your belt like lace,
D A G Asus4 A
And your deck of cards missing the jack and the ace
G D Em7 A7 D
And your basement clothes and your hollow face
D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
Who among them could think he could outguess you?
[Verse 4]
D A G Asus4 A
With your silhouette when the sunlight dims
D A G Asus4 A
Into your eyes where the moonlight swims
G D Em7 A7 D
And your match-book songs and your gypsy hymns
D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
Who among them would try to impress you?
[Chorus]
Em D A
Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands
Em D | A | A7
Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes
D A G D G D Asus4 A | A |
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums
Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
Should I put them by your gate
Em | D | % |
Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
[Verse 5]
D A G Asus4 A
The kings of Tyrus with their convict list
D A G Asus4 A
Are waiting in line for their geranium kiss
G D Em7 A7 D
And you wouldn't know it would happen like this
D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
But who among them really wants just to kiss you?
[Verse 6]
D A G Asus4 A
With your childhood flames on your midnight rug
D A G Asus4 A
And your Spanish manners and your mother's drugs
G D Em7 A7 D
And your cowboy mouth and your curfew plugs
D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
Who among them do you think could resist you?
[Chorus]
Em D A
Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands
Em D | A | A7 |
Where the sad-eyed prophet say that no man comes
D A G D G D Asus4 A | A7 |
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums
Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
Should I leave them by your gate
Em | D | % |
Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
[Verse 7]
D A G Asus4 A
Oh, the farmers and the businessmen, they all did decide
D A G Asus4 A
To show you where the dead angels are that they used to hide
G D Em7 A7 D
But why did they pick you to sympathize with their side?
D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
How could they ever mistake you?
[Verse 8]
D A G Asus4 A
They wished you'd accepted the blame for the farm
D A G Asus4 A
But with the sea at your feet and the phony false alarm
G D Em7 A7 D
And with the child of a hoodlum wrapped up in your arms
D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
How could they ever, ever persuaded you?
[Chorus]
Em D A
Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands
Em D | A | A7 |
Where the sad-eyed prophet say that no man comes
D A G D G D Asus4 A | A |
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums
Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
Should I put them by your gate
Em | D | % |
Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
[Verse 9]
D A G Asus4 A
With your sheet-metal memory of Cannery Row
D A G Asus4 A
And your magazine-husband who one day just had to go
G D Em7 A7 D
And your gentleness now, which you just can't help but show
D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
Who among them do you think would employ you?
[Verse 10]
D A G Asus4 A
Now you stand with your thief, you're on his parole
D A G Asus4 A
With your holy medallion in your fingertips now that fold
G D Em7 A7 D
And your saintlike face and your ghostlike soul
D Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
Who among them could ever think he could destroy you
[Chorus]
Em D A
Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands
Em D | A | A7 |
Where the sad-eyed prophet say that no man comes
D A G D G D Asus4 A | A |
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums
Em A7sus4 A7 A7sus2 A7
Should I leave them by your gate
Em | D | % |
Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
