Verse 1:

E A B E

I'm really sorry Steven

Ab C# A

But your bicycle's been stolen

E

I was watchin it for you

F# A

'Til you came back in the fall

F# A

Guess I didn't do such a good job after all

Verse 2:

E A B E

I was feeling really sorry Steven

Ab C# A

And I spent all morning grieving

E

And everybody's saying

F# A

That you'll take the news gracefully

F# A

Somehow I don't think I'll be getting off that easily

Chorus 1:

C# A

I meant her no harm

E Ab

When I left her unlocked Outside the Orange Street Food Farm

C# A

I was just running in

E Eb

Didn't think I'd be that long

C# A

I came out, she was gone

E Ab

And all that was there was some bored old dog

C# A E

Leashed up to the place where your bicycle had been

F# B

Guess we'll never see poor Madeleine again

Verse 3 (match verse 1 for chords):

Let this be consolation, Steven

That all the while you were in England

I treated her with care and respect

And have her lots of love

And I was usually pretty good 'bout locking her up

Chorus 2 (match chorus 2 for chords):

Where has she gone?

Well, I bet she's on the bottom of a Frenchtown pond

Rudely abused on some hescher's joyride

So I wrote you this song

In the hopes that you'd forgive me

Even though it was wrong

Being so careless with a thing so great

And taking your poor Madeleine away, away
