Intro
E E6 E (x3)
Verse
EThe morning sun touched gently on E7
The Aeyes of Lucy EJordan
EIn a white suburban bedroom
In a Bwhite suburban town. B7
As she Elay there 'neath the covers E7
Dreaming Aof a thousand Elovers
Till the Bworld turned to oB7range
And the room went spinning Eround. E7
Chorus
At the Aage of thirty-seven
She Erealized she'd never ride
EThrough Paris in a sports car
EWith the warm wind in her Bhair.
So she Elet the phone keep rinE7ging
As she Asat there softly Esinging
The Bnursery rhymes she'd memorized
In her Adaddy's easy Echair.
Verse
EHer husband is off to work E7
And the Akids are off to Eschool
EAnd there were oh so many ways
For Bher to spend a B7day.
She could Eclean the house for E7hours
Or Are-arrange the Eflowers
Or Bmake it through the shady stream
BScreaming all the Eway.
Chorus
At the Aage of thirty-seven
She Erealized she'd never ride
EThrough Paris in a sports car
EWith the warm wind in her Bhair.
So she Elet the phone keep rinE7ging
As she Asat there softly Esinging
The Bnursery rhymes she'd memorized
In her Adaddy's easy Echair.
Verse
EThe evening sun touched gently on E7
The Aeyes of Lucy EJordan
EOn the roof top where she climbed
EWhen all the laughter grew too Bloud. B7
And she Ebowed and curtsied to E7the man
Who Areached out and offered Eher his hands
And Bhe led her down to a long white car
BThat waited, past the Ecrowd. E7
Chorus
At the Aage of thirty-seven
She Eknew that she'd found forever
EAs she rode along through Paris
EWith the warm wind in her Bhair...
