Lady Adelaide (CHORDS) by Benjamin Gibbard

[Intro]~
G


[Verse]~
G
Lady Adelaide shows no emotion

G
Colder than a wave in the Arctic Ocean

G
She waited all her years for those 3 words

G
That never reached her ears

G                C      G
They just went unheard

G
Porcelain and frail,, slender shoulders

G
A breeze of gusty gale could knock her over

G
She knew a handsome man who she gave her body

G
But he did not take her hand

G                          C    G
And her heart broke softly oooh


[Chorus]~
           Am
Now she's a bird with broken wing

             C
She likes the ideas of things

              G
More than what they are bound to bring

    D
Lady Adelai-delaide

            Am
And with her beauty in slow fade

         C
She is so fearful they will say

             G
That she is a bed that's been unmade

    D                  Am        G
Lady Adelai-delai-delai-delaide


[Interlude]~
G


[Chorus]~
           Am
Now she's a bird with broken wing

             C
She likes the ideas of things

              G
More than what they are bound to bring

    D
Lady Adelai-delaide

            Am
And with her beauty in slow fade

         C
She is so fearful they will say

             G
That she is a bed that's been unmade

    D                  Am        G
Lady Adelai-delai-delai-delaide
