Вступление
Standard tuning, no Capo
Bb7 113131
[Intro]
C Am Dm G
C G C
[Chorus]
C Am Dm G
People say a roving woman
C Am F G
Is likely not to be better than she ought to be
Em Am D
So, when I stray away from where I’ve got to be
Dm G C
Someone always takes me home
[Verse 1]
G D G D
A lady never should habituate saloons
G Am Bm Am
And that is where I find myself on many afternoons
G Am G C
And just as I begin to blow away the foam
Bm Bb7 D G
Someone tips his hat to me and takes me home
[Chorus]
C Am Dm G
People say a roving woman
C Am F G
Is likely not to be better than she ought to be
Em Am D
So, when I stray away from where I’ve got to be
Dm G C
Someone always takes me home
[Verse 2]
G D G D
Now, poker is a game a lady shouldn’t play
G Am Bm Am
But every floatin’ poker game just seems to float my way
G Am G C
And long before I’ve lost a thing besides my comb
Bm Bb7 D G
Someone tips his hand to me and takes me home
[Chorus]
C Am Dm G
Don’t see why they always do it
C Am F G
Can’t be vanity; must be sheer humanity
Em Am D
When some kind soul remarks with great urbanity:
Dm G C
'Lady, let me take you home.'
[Verse 3]
G D G D
And sure, there’s bound to be some sort of aftermath
G Am Bm Am
That makes a pleasant ending of the straight and narrow path
G Am G C
And as I go to sleep, I cannot help but think
Bm Bb7 D G
How glad I am that I was saved from cards and drink
[Chorus]
C Am Dm G
People say a roving woman
C Am F G
Is likely not to be better than she ought to be
Em Am D
So, when I stray, away from where I've got to be
Dm G C
Someone always takes me home
