Richard Thompson - Shaky Nancy

shaky nancy

intro chords : D C B Am

chorus :
G
here she comes and there she goes
F Em
nothing on her fingers , nothing on her toes
D C Am
why she comes , nobody knows
G
here comes shaky nancy

G
don’t be believing , she melts in your hand
Am7 C
runs with the tide and she shifts with the sand
D C Am
she’ll send you a message and turn to stone
G
she’s a hard girl , nancy

one cold morning , ice on the sea
shaky nancy , won’t you lean on me?
must mean something , how can you lose?
there’s nothing choosy or chancy

chorus

nancy went walking , she’s gone for the day
when she comes back , she’s been two years away
there’s still tears in her eyes
who’ll say a prayer for nancy?

chorus

throw me a bottle , throw me a bowl
and you throw what’s left of me into the hole
i’ll take a sleep , i’ll take a sleep
and i’ll dream sweet dreams of nancy
