Patches Dickey Lee
Ab7 [xx4114]
Verse 1:
D[Db]own by the river that f[Gb]lows by the [Db/Ab]coalyards
S[Db]tand wooden houses with s[Gb]hutters torn d[Ab]own
Th[Db]ere lives a g[Fm]irl everyb[Gb]ody calls P[Db/Ab]atches
P[Db]atches, my darling, of [Ab7]old Shantyt[Db]own [A7]
[key cbange to D]
Verse 2:
[D]We planned to marry when J[G]une brought the s[D/A]ummer
[D]I couldn't wait to make Pa[G]tches my br[A]ide
N[D]ow I don't [F#m]see how that e[G]ver can [D/A]happen
[D]My folks say no and my he[A7]art breaks ins[D]ide
Chorus 1:
D A/G A7 [tbe A/G is probably a mistake]
Patches, oh what can I do
[G]I swear I'll a[D]lways love you
But a g[G]irl from that place will just br[D]ing me disg[Bm]race
So [D]my folks won't l[A7]et me love y[D]ou [Bb7]
[key cbange to Eb]
Verse 3:
[Eb]Each night I cry as I t[Ab]hink of that [Eb/Bb]shanty
[Eb]And pretty Patches there wa[Ab]tching the d[Bb]oor
[Eb]She doesn't k[Gm]now that I c[Ab]an't come to[Eb/Bb] see her
P[Eb]atches must think that I l[Bb7]ove her no m[Eb]ore [B7]
[key cbange to E]
Verse 4:
[E]I hear a neighbor t[A]elling my f[E/B]ather
[E]He says a girl name of P[A]atches was fo[B]und
F[E]loating face [G#m]down in that d[A]irty old r[E/B]iver
That fl[E]ows by the coalyards in [B7]old Shantyt[E]own
Chorus 2:
Pa[E]tches, oh w[B]hat can I do
[A]I swear I'll a[E]lways love you
It m[A]ay not be right but I'll j[E]oin you ton[C#m]ight
E [N.C.]
Patches, I'm comin' to you
