Fancy 
Tom: E
Intro: E G A E
/ ///// / ///// / ///// / //// /
  E
I remember it all very well lookin' back
    A
It was the summer I turned eighteen
   A
We lived in a one room, rundown shack
 C   E
On the outskirts of New Orleans
   E
We didn't have money for food or rent
     A
To say the least we were hard pressed
     A
Then Mama spent every last penny we had
   C     E
To buy me a dancin' dress
 E
Mama washed and combed and curled my hair
 A D
and she painted my eyes and lips then I stepped into a satin
 A E
dancin' dress that had a split on the side clean up to my hip
E   A
It was red velvet trim and it fit me good
  D
Standin' back from the lookin' glass
     A E
There stood a woman where a half grown kid had stood
    C A    E run#1
She said here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down
  G A   E run#2  E
Here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down
     E
Mama dabbed a little bit of perfume on my neck
 A
And she kissed my cheek
 A C
Then I saw the tears wellin' up in her troubled eyes
     E
When she started to speak
    E
She looked at a pitiful shack
        A
And then she looked at me and took a ragged breath
       A
She said your Pa's run off and I'm real sick
 C E
And the baby's gonna starve to death
    E
She handed me a heart shaped locket that said
    A
"To thine own self be true"
 D
And I shivered as I watched a roach crawl across
    A   E
the toe of my high heeled shoe
   E
It sounded like somebody else that was talkin'
 G#       C#
Askin' Mama what do I do
 A
She said just be nice to the gentlemen Fancy
    B E
And they'll be nice to you
 C A    E run#1
She said, here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down
 G A   E run#2
Here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down
 G A       C
Lord forgive me for what I do, but if you want out
           D
Well it's up to you
    C B E
Now don't let me down you better start movin' uptown
     E
Well that was the last time I saw my Ma
 A
The night I left that rickety shack
 A
The welfare people came and took the baby
     C    E
Mama died and I ain't been back
    E
But the wheel of fate had started to turn
 A
And for me there was no way out
 A
And it wasn't very long 'til I knew exactly
 C     E
What my Mama'd been talkin' about
  E    A
I knew what I had to do but I made myself this solemn vow
      D
That I's gonna be a lady someday
 A      E
Though I didn't know when or how
  E
I couldn't see spending the rest of my life
 G#   C#
With my head hung down in shame you know
 A
I might have been born just plain white trash
     B   E
But Fancy was my name

Here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down
 G A   E run#2 E
Here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down
 * Guitar in next verse is played almost as percussion
 * Fret-hand dampens strings, pick-hand keeps tempo
It wasn't long after a benevolent man
Took me off the street
And one week later I was pourin' his tea
In a five room hotel suite
I charmed a king, a congressman
And an occasional aristocrat
Then I got me a Georgia mansion
In an elegant New York townhouse flat
 * Guitar comes back in...
 E   repeat intro E G A E
And I ain't done bad
 E   A
Now in this world there's a lot of self-righteous hippocrits
That would call me bad

And criticize Mama for turning me out

No matter how little we had
 E
But though I ain't had to worry 'bout nothin'
    G#     C#
For nigh on fifteen years

I can still hear the desparation in my poor

Here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down

The Greatest Man I Never Knew 
Tom: C

The greatest man I never knew
                     Am    C
Lived just down the hall
               Am           C
And everyday we said hello
                     F    C F
But never touched at all
               C      F
He was in his paper
              Am   C 
I was in my room
               Am                F  G   C
How was I to know he thought I hung the moon
C                 Am           C
The greatest man I never knew
                      Am
Came home late every night
                  Am          C
He never had too much to say 
                    F     C F
Too much was on his mind
                 C
I never really knew him

Oh and now it seems so sad
              Am              F   G  C     Em
Everything he gave to us took all he had
Em            F  
Then the days turned into years
        C            G               C  Em
And the memories to black and white
Em                    F
He grew cold like an old winter wind
Am                 G
Blowing across my life
C                   Am           C
The greatest words I never heard
                    Am   C
I guess I'll never hear
                       Am          C 
The man I thought would never die

S'been dead almost a year

But there was business left to do

He never said he loved me

Guess he thought I knew

The Fear Of Being Alone

We ordered up one more bottle of wine
                 G           A                 D
You told me your story and I thought about mine
                  G            A                D
You said when you lost her you lost everything
               G          A         D        D G A D   G A D
It all started having a familiar ring
D                 G        A            D
So I asked you to take me some place quiet
                   G             A                 D
We wound up at the river for the rest of the night
D         G          A          D
Somewhere around the break of day
D               G             A         D
I could hear it coming from a mile away
Chorus:
D                 G
So don't say that word
        D           G     D   A
Not the one we both heard too much
D                 G          Em
You may think you do but you don't
              A                    D G A D   G A D
It's just the fear of being alone
D        G          A        D
Reckless hearts can clear a path
D            G           A      D
Wider than a hurricane's aftermath
D          G        A         D
We've both traveled down that road
D                   G     A               D
Where in the name of love everything goes
**Chorus
D          G         D
Like a child in the night
     D         G
With no one to hold you

And tell you everything's gonna be all right

I must admit it's been fun

Cm                                                   F
He still missed his mama, but he'd missed his daddy too
Gm                                        Eb
And when the guard left the two of them alone
Cm                                                     F
He took Bobby in his arms, and the young man sang his song
Bb                Eb                Cm            Bb
Daddy, I'll take care of you, I'll never let you down
Bb                 Eb             Cm           F
No harm will ever come to you as long as I'm around
Gm                 Eb                             Gm
You have taught me not to fear what people say or do
Cm                                 Eb      F     Bb  Eb Bb
The only thing that hurts is being here without you.
Close To Crazy
Tom :E
Intro: A B7 E
E	 E7		     A		     Am
I still reach for you, in the middle of my dreams each night
E		     E7		    A  Am
But my arms come up empty every time
E		  E7	      A			    Am
And lately I talk to your memory more than I should
E		    E7		   E
If I could just forget the past I would
	     Am		       A	    B7
'Cause this missing you ain't doing me no good
Chorus:
		  A  B7		E
I'm so close to crazy, right on the edge
	      A			B7		    E
Just one step away from going insane, but I'm not there yet
		 A	    Am		 C#m   B7   A
If I could just lose my mind, I wouldn't know we're through
	      A   	    B7		 E
But this close to crazy, is far from over you
E      E7 		A	       Am
Today I caught myself, reliving how it used to be
E		  E7		A   Am
At a table for two just you and me
E		   E7		   A		     Am
But talking to an empty chair and laughing right out loud
    E	      	    E7		     E
Turned everybody's head and left no doubt
        Am	   A		      B7
I'm a broken woman close to breaking down
**Chorus
		 A	   B7		E
Oh this close to crazy, is far from over you
E	 E7
I still reach for you
	A	      Am		E
In the middle of my dreams each night
Forever Love

F      Bb            F             Eb 
  The first time I laid my eyes on you I knew
Bb               F           Eb
We'd spent this life side by side
   Bb              F                Eb 
I still feel the same though you're so far away
   Bb                Eb        F  
I swear that you'll always be mine
         Bb             Gm      Eb              F

         Bb
Forever Love  
F    Bb          F         Eb
   Minutes and hours and tears may go by
Bb            F                Eb
But my heart knows nothing of time
    Bb              F             Eb
So don't cry just keep me right there in your dreams
     Bb          Eb             F  
And hold on to these words of mine
          C             Am     F                G  
Forever Love  I promise you  Someday we'll be together
F        C                  C             Am            F          G

You Lie
Tom:A
   A
We lie in the dark,  I know you're awake
                                                D
The only sounds,  are the sounds this old house makes
                                   A
Oh how I long, I long to hear your voice
A
Desperate to talk, yearning to touch
                                            D
Burning inside,  'cause I want you so much
D                                      E       D E
So I say I need you,  and leave you no choice
    A C#m D                   E
You lie,      you don’t wanna hurt me
       A C#m
So you l-i-e, and buy a little time
    G                D
And I go along, what else can I do
    Bm                        Esus            E
But maybe it’s wrong, but you know how much I love you,
       A C#m D Bm                              Esus E
So you l-i-e,   till you can find a way to say goodbye
    (repeat intro lick)
You lie.
A
How long until, you just cain’t go on,
                                               D
And the urge to break loose, is just too strong,
D                                        E
You should let go, that’s what you wanna do,
        D
Oh, but you don’t know (you don’t know)
                           E
If it’s the right thing to do,
       A C#m D                     E
So you l-i-e, you don’t wanna hurt me,
       A C#m
So you l-i-e, and buy a little time,
    G                D
And I go along, what else can I do,
    Bm                        Esus            E
But maybe it’s wrong, but you know how much I love you,
       A C#m D Bm                             Esus E
So you l-i-e,  till you can find a way to say goodbye
        A C#m D Esus E
Oh, you l-i-e,
        A C#m D Esus E
You l-i-e,
        A C#m D Esus E
Oh, you l-i-e,
        A C#m D Esus E
Oh, you l-i-e            (fading out to end)
