[Verses] Lady With A Fan:
G Dm Dm C G F
Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme, suggesting rhythm,
F C F C F (riff 1)
That will not forsake me, till my tale is told and done.
G Dm Dm C G F
While the firelights aglow, strange shadows from the flames will grow,
F C F F
Till things weve never seen will seem familiar.
G Dm Dm C G F
Shadows of a sailor, forming winds both foul and fair all swarm.
F C F C F (riff 1)
Down in Carlisle, he loved a lady, many years ago.
G Dm Dm C G F
Here beside him stands a man, a soldier from the looks of him,
F C F F
Who came through many fights, but lost at love.
G Dm Dm C G F
While the storyteller speaks, a door within the fire creaks,
F C F C F (riff 1)
Suddenly flies open, and a girl is standing there.
G Dm Dm C G F
Eyes alight, with glowing hair, all that fancy paints as fair,
F C F F
She takes her fan and throws it, in the lions den.
G Dm Dm C G F
Which of you to gain me tell, will risk uncertain pains of hell?
F C F C F (riff 1)
I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance.
G Dm Dm C G F
The sailor gave at least a try, the soldier being much too wise,
F C F F
Strategy was his strength, and not disaster.

G Dm Dm C G F
The sailor, coming out again, the lady fairly leapt at him.
F C F C F (riff 1)
That’s how it stands today. You decide if he was wise.
G Dm Dm C G F
The storyteller makes no choice. Soon you will not hear his voice.
F C F
His job is to shed light, and not to master.
