Hunting Girl

Em                          
One day I walked the road and 
             D
crossed a field
      C                      G
  to go by where the hounds ran 
   A5
hard.
Em                                
And on the master raced: behind 
            D
the hunters chased
       C                 G  A5
  to where the path was barred.
C        D             G       
One fine young lady's horse 
A         Em
refused the fence to clear.
C               D         G      
I unlocked the gate but she did 
A                            B
wait until the pack had disappeared.

The queen of all the pack, this 
                    D          
joker raised his hat and talked 
 C          G   A5
about the weather.
C      D         G             
All should be warned about this

 high born Hunting Girl.

She took this simple man's 
        A                          
downfall in hand; I raised the flag
  B
 that she unfurled.

Am                                
Boot leather flashing and 
       G       F        Em
spurnecks the size of my thumb.
Am                                
This highborn hunter had tastes as
    G         F         E
 strange as they come, come.

Am                             G 
Unbridled passion: I took the bit
     F        Em
 in my teeth.
Am                               
Her standing over --- me on my 
G     F           E
knees underneath, underneath.

Em                                
My lady, be discrete.I must get to
    D          C         G   A5
 my feet and go back to the farm.
Em                           
Whilst I appreciate you are no 
    D           C           G   A5
deviate, I might come to some harm.
C         D          G          
I'm not inclined to acts 
     A             Em
refined, if that's how it goes.
C               D              G
Oh, high born Hunting Girl, I'm 
        A                    B
just a normal low born so and so.
