Gene Clark & Carla Olson
Fair and Tender Ladies
This is a way to play it in the same key of A, but with a capo and some easier chords.
Capo on 2nd Fret

My daddy was a handsome gambler he had a chain five miles long
C Am D C Am D
On every link a heart gets dangled of another maid he loved and wronged
Am G Am Em
He told to you some loving story He'd make you think he'd leave them true
C Am D C Am D
But love grows cold as love grows older and fades away like morning dew
Am G Am Em
I'd rather be in some dark hollow where the sun refused to shine
C Am D C Am D
Than to live here in Missouri with your memory always haunting my mind
Am G Am Em
Come all ye fair and tender ladies take warning how your court your man
C Am D
They're like a star on a summer morning
C Am D
First they appear then they're gone again
Am G Am Em C Am D C Am D
Am G Am Em
Come all ye fair and tender ladies take warning how your court your man
C Am D
They're like a star on a summer morning
C Am D
First they appear then they're gone again
Am G Am Em C Am D C Am D
