Intro

A D A E A D A E

A

And I'm caught one more time

D A D A

Up on Cyprus Avenue

D

Caught one more time

A D A

Up on Cyprus Avenue

E D

And I'm conquered in a car seat

A D A E

Not a thing that I can do

I may go crazy

Before that mansion on the hill

I may go crazy

Before that mansion on the hill

But my heart keeps beating faster

And my feet can't keep still

And all the little girls rhyme something

On the way back home from school

And all the little girls rhyme something

On the way back home from school

And the leaves fall one by one by one by one

Call the autumn time a fool

Yeah baby my tongue gets tied

Every every every time I try to speak

My tongue gets tied

Every time I try to speak

And my inside shakes just like a leaf on a tree

A E A D A D

I think I'll go walking by the rail - road with my cherry cherry wine

A D A D

I believe I'll go wal - king by the railroad with my cherry cherry wine

A E D A D

If I pass the rumbling station where the lonesome engine drivers pine

A E A

And wait a minute, yonder comes my lady

D A D A

Rainbow rib - bo - ns in her hair

D

Yonder come my lady

A D A

Rainbow ribbons in her hair

E

Six white horses and a carriage

D A D

Just returning from the fair

A E

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, babe

A D

Alone I'm caught one more time

A D

Way up on Cyprus A - venue, oh

A D

Yes I am, yeah

A D A

I caught one more time up on Cyprus Avenue wohhhh

E

And I'm conquered in a car seat

D A D

And I'm looking straight at you

A E

Way up on, way up on, way up on....

The avenue of trees

Keep walking down

Inthe wind and the rain, darling

You keep walking down when the sun shone through the trees

Nobody, no, no, no, nobody stops me from loving you baby

So young and bold, fourteen years old

Baby, baby, baby...

Ooooh-ee
