E B
As I was walking down rubadub square
E B
Not a chill to the weather but a nip to the air
A E A E
From another direction she was caught in my eye
A E A E
It could be an illusion but I might as well try
B B B B
might as well try
E B
She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes
E B
And I knew without asking she was into the blues
A E A E
She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls
A E A E B B B B
I knew right away she was not like other girls
F#
Well I ain't never been right as I ain't never been wrong
B A E E
As everything works out the way it does in this song
F#
Cause once in a while you get shown in the light
B A E E
In the strangest of places if you look at it right

E
It was the summer of love and I thank the stars above
B A E
Because the women took the lovin' over me
E
And just to gain her trust I bought a microbus
B A E
Because I sold off my personal property
A E
A tight tie-dyed dress she was a psychedelic mess
A E
We toured to the north south east and west
A
We sold some mushroom tea
E
We sold some ecstasy
A E
We sold nitrus opium acid heroin and PCP
A E
Now I hear the police coming after me
A E
Yes now I hear the police coming after me
A E
The one scarlet with the flowers in her hair
A E E
She's got the police coming after me
E B
Well there ain't nothing wrong with the way she moves
E B
All scarlet begonias and a touch of the blues
A E A E
And there ain't nothin wrong with the love that's in her eyes
A E A E
I had to learn the hard way just to let her pass by
B
let her pass by
