CAPO at II



Intro:



E G A E

/ ///// / ///// / ///// / //// /



E

I remember it all very well lookin' back

A

It was the summer I turned eighteen

A

We lived in a one room, rundown shack

C E

On the outskirts of New Orleans

E

We didn't have money for food or rent

A

To say the least we were hard pressed

A

Then Mama spent every last penny we had

C E

To buy me a dancin' dress



E

Mama washed and combed and curled my hair

A D

and she painted my eyes and lips then I stepped into a satin

A E

dancin' dress that had a split on the side clean up to my hip

E A

It was red velvet trim and it fit me good

D

Standin' back from the lookin' glass

A E

There stood a woman where a half grown kid had stood



C A E run#1

She said here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down

G A E run#2 E

Here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down



E

Mama dabbed a little bit of perfume on my neck

A

And she kissed my cheek

A C

Then I saw the tears wellin' up in her troubled eyes

E

When she started to speak

E

She looked at a pitiful shack

A

And then she looked at me and took a ragged breath

A

She said your Pa's run off and I'm real sick

C E

And the baby's gonna starve to death

E

She handed me a heart shaped locket that said

A

"To thine own self be true"

D

And I shivered as I watched a roach crawl across

A E

the toe of my high heeled shoe

E

It sounded like somebody else that was talkin'

G# C#

Askin' Mama what do I do

A

She said just be nice to the gentlemen Fancy

B E

And they'll be nice to you



C A E run#1

She said, here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down

G A E run#2

Here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down

G A C

Lord forgive me for what I do, but if you want out

D

Well it's up to you

C B E

Now don't let me down you better start movin' uptown



E

Well that was the last time I saw my Ma

A

The night I left that rickety shack

A

The welfare people came and took the baby

C E

Mama died and I ain't been back



E

But the wheel of fate had started to turn

A

And for me there was no way out

A

And it wasn't very long 'til I knew exactly

C E

What my Mama'd been talkin' about



E A

I knew what I had to do but I made myself this solemn vow

D

That I's gonna be a lady someday

A E

Though I didn't know when or how

E

I couldn't see spending the rest of my life

G# C#

With my head hung down in shame you know

A

I might have been born just plain white trash

B E

But Fancy was my name



C A E run#1

Here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down

G A E run#2 E

Here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down



* Guitar in next verse is played almost as percussion

* Fret-hand dampens strings, pick-hand keeps tempo

It wasn't long after a benevolent man



Took me off the street



And one week later I was pourin' his tea



In a five room hotel suite





I charmed a king, a congressman



And an occasional aristocrat



Then I got me a Georgia mansion



In an elegant New York townhouse flat

* Guitar comes back in...

E repeat intro E G A E

And I ain't done bad



E A

Now in this world there's a lot of self-righteous hippocrits



That would call me bad

D

And criticize Mama for turning me out

A E

No matter how little we had



E

But though I ain't had to worry 'bout nothin'

G# C#

For nigh on fifteen years

A

I can still hear the desparation in my poor

B E

Mama's voice ringin' in my ear



C A E run#1

She said, here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down

G A E run#2

Here's your one chance Fancy don't let me down

G A

Lord forgive me for what I do

C D

But if you want out well it's up to you

C

Now don't let me down

B E

Your Mama's goina help you uptown



E repeat intro/outro to end...

I guess she did
