Melody Dean

• F

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        Bb 
River twice I don't like getting wet 
F 
You take the good you take the bad 
C        Bb 
You take it all and that is all you 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        Bb 
Crackers, yeah I like the way she looks 
F 
And when I go to bed at night with  
C Bb 
Melody undressing in my head 
F 
To get tot 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 
Bb 
But you can only do that when you're here 
And right now you are not
