                       by Gordon Lightfoot<br/>
 <br/>
 Transcribed by Mark Galassi (rosalia@max.physics.sunysb.edu).  Gordon<br/>
 plays this in F# (probably in E with capo on 2nd fret) on the Gord's<br/>
 Gold album.  I saw him do it in concert in A with capo on first fret.<br/>
 I guess his voice has changed since he recorded it.  He plays it on a<br/>
 twelve string guitar.<br/>
 <br/>
 <br/>
 E<br/>
 I can see her lyin' back in her satin dress<br/>
      B7                         E<br/>
 In a room where you do what you don't confess<br/>
 <br/>
     E              A<br/>
 R1. Sundown, you'd better take care<br/>
          D                                E<br/>
     If I find you've been creeping 'round my back stairs [twice]<br/>
 <br/>
 She's been looking like a queen in a sailor's dream<br/>
 And she don't always say what she really means<br/>
 <br/>
 R2. Sometimes I think it's a shame<br/>
     When I get feeling better when I'm feelin' no pain [twice]<br/>
 <br/>
 I can picture every move that a man could make<br/>
 Getting lost in your lover is the first mistake<br/>
 <br/>
 R1.<br/>
 <br/>
 R3. Sometimes I think it's a sin<br/>
     When I feel like I'm winning when I'm loosing again<br/>
 <br/>
 I can see her looking fast in her faded jeans<br/>
 She's a hard lovin' woman got me feelin' mean<br/>
 <br/>
 R2. R1. R1. R3.<br/>
