[Intro]

B E B A B x4

[Verse 1]

    E                                      A            B
As I was walkin' down Grosvenor Square,
        E                                    A            B
Not a chill to the winter but a nip to the air,
A                          E   B     A                             E
From the other direction she was calling my eye,
A                      E   B     A                       E                        B
Could be an illusion but I might as well try, might as well try.

[Verse 2]

            E                                        A                 B
She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes,
        E                                            A           B
And I knew without askin' she was into the blues.
A                           E   B       A                          E
She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls,
A                         E B         A                     E                   B
I knew right away she was not like other girls, other girls.

[Verse 3]

           E                                            A              B
In the heat of the evening when the dealin' got rough,
           E                                     A             B
She was too pat to open and too cool to bluff.
A                           E    B     A                         E
As I picked up my matches and was closin' the door,
A                            E   B    A                           E                              B
I had one of those flashes, I'd been there before, been there before.

[Bridge]

             F#
Well, I ain't often right but I've never been wrong,
B                                            A                 E
Seldom turns out the way it does in the song.
F#
Once in a while you get shown the light
            B                                     A               E      F# A B
In the strangest of places if you look at it right.

[Verse 4]
