Marianne Faithfull

The Ballad Of Lucy Jordan

by Marianne Faithfull
Marianne Faithfull

Biography:

Marianne Faithfull (born 29 December 1946 in London) is an English singer-songwriter and actress whose career spans more than four decades. Her early work in pop and rock music in the 1960s was overshadowed by her struggle with drug abuse in the 1970s. After a long commercial absence, she returned late in 1979 with the highly acclaimed album, Broken English. Faithfull's subsequent solo work, often critically-acclaimed, has at times been rather overshadowed by her personal history.

E E7
The morning sun touched gently on
A E
the eyes of Lucy Jordan

in a white suburban bedroom
B B7
in a white suburban town.
E E7
As she lay there 'neath the covers
A E
dreaming of a thousand lovers
B B7
till the world turned to orange
E E7
and the room went spinning round.

A
At the age of thirty-seven
E
she realized she'd never ride

through Paris in a sports car
B
with the warm wind in her hair.

E E7
So she let the phone keep ringing
A E
as she sat there softly singing
B
the nursery rhymes she'd memorize
A E
in her daddy's easy chair.

E7
Her husband is off to work
A E
and the kids are off to school

and there were oh so many ways
B B7
for her to spend a day.

E E7
She could clean the house for hours
A E
or re-arrange the flowers
B
or make it through the shady stream
E
screaming all the way.

A
At the age of thirty-seven
E
she realized she'd never ride

through Paris in a sports car
B
with the warm wind in her hair.

E E7
So she let the phone keep ringing
A E
as she sat there softly singing
B
the nursery rhymes she'd memorize
A E
in her daddy's easy chair.

E7
The evening sun touched gently on
A E
the eyes of Lucy Jordan

on the roof top where she climbed
B B7
when all the laughter grew too loud.

E E7
And she bowed and cursed to the man (?)
A E
who reached out ... off to her his hands (?)
B
and led her down to a long white car (?)
E E7
that waited, past the crowd.

A
At the age of thirty-seven
E
she knew that she'd found heaven

as she rode along through Paris
B
with the warm wind in her hair.
