Pussy Willow

• Am

INTRO    Am     F           G  
 
Am     F           G         D         Am  
In the half-tone light of a young morning  
      C            D            E  
she sighs and shifts on the pillow.  
       F           G         D                 F  
And across her face dancing, the first shadows fly  
    G               Am  
to kiss the Pussy Willow.  
Am     F           G              D         Am  
In her fairy-tale world she's a lost soul singing  
      C            D     E  
in a sad voice nobody hears.  
       F           G         D   F  
She waits in her castle of make-believing  
         G               Am  
for her white knight to appear.  
Am                     C        G  
Am                           F          G  
brushing the sleep from her young woman eyes.  
Am                                          G  
F                       G       D  
cutting dreams down to size again.  
 
REST THE SAME HALF TONE UP  
 
brushing the sleep from her young woman eyes.  
Runs from the train. Hear her typewriter humming  
cutting dreams down to size again.  
 
She longs for the East and a pale dress flowing  
an apartment in old Mayfair.  
Or to fish the Spey, spinning the first run of Spring  
or to die for a cause somewhere.  
 
brushing the sleep from her young woman eyes.  
Runs from the train. Hear her typewriter humming  
cutting dreams down to size again.
