Melody Dean

  F
I never met a lady
         C                   Bb
Quite as pretty as Melody Dean
    F
And when I laid my head down on her
C                           Bb
heart it beated out your name
    F
And so I had to
C
listen to her
Bb
heart beat several hundred times and
F
She was very
C
nice about it
Bb
Held my hand and didn't mind
  F
I never put my foot in the same
C                                  
River twice I don't like getting 
Bb
wet
    F
You take the good you take the bad
    C                             
You take it all and that is all you 
Bb
get
    F
The fact is you would rather I be
C                         Bb
lonely in a bathtub with a book
    F
The fact is you would rather I sat
C                               Bb
Pining on our pictures from New York

New York, New York, New York

But

F C   Bb
I get torn to pieces

F   C   Bb
For the stupidest reasons
F   C Bb
All I want's to love the one I'm 
with
Just like the song says

  F
I don't like picking sides I don't 
like
C                          Bb
Sticking my Sharona in a box
  F
I like to spread her out on 
different
C                               
Crackers, yeah I like the way she 
Bb
looks
    F
And when I go to bed at night with
C                          Bb
Melody undressing in my head
   F
To get to sleep you know that I 
would
C                          Bb
Rather be undressing you instead
Instead, instead, instead

  F
I never met a lady quite as
C
Pretty as Melody Dean and
Bb
Even though I know you are a little 
bit angry with me
    F
You know that it is you I love
    C
And you I want to get me off
    Bb
But you can only do that when you're
 here
And right now you are not
F

(Instrumental break follows the 
exact same pattern)
  F
I never cross the Continental
C                             Bb
Divide without thinking about you
  F
I am a tree that's carved up with 
her
C                        Bb
Name she is a warrior tattoo
        F
And the fact is you're selective 
about
C                          Bb
what you can remember for a   start
F
The fact is you're just jealous as 
all
C                            Bb
Get out we can do it in the dark
The dark, the dark, the dark

But

F C   Bb
I get torn to pieces
F   C   Bb
For the stupidest reasons
F   C Bb
All I want's to love the one I'm 
with
Just like Steven Stills says

  F
I never met a lady quite as
C
Pretty as Melody Dean and
Bb
Even though I know you are a little 
bit angry with me
    F
You know that it is you I love
    C
And you I want to get me off
