[Verse 1]
G CM7 D6 G CM7 G CM7
Oh, I was born with the name Geraldine
G CM7 G CM7 G CM7
With hair coal black as a raven
G CM7 D6 G CM7 G CM7
I traveled my life without a care
G D6 G CM7 G
Ah, but all my love I was savin'
[Verse 2]
G CM7 D6 G CM7 G CM7
Oh, the winds blew high and the trees did sway
G CM7 G CM7 G CM7
Not much from life was I askin'
G CM7 D6 G CM7 G CM7
Till I met someone to give all my love
G D6 G CM7 G
All my love, so long and lastin'
[Verse 3]
G CM7 D6 G CM7 G
Oh, good were the parts we played in our game
G CM7 G CM7 G CM7
And a long ways off was tomorrow
G CM7 D6 G CM7 G CM7
But my love was a rambler and restless as the sea
G D6 G CM7 G
And in the tide came sorrow
[Verse 4]
G CM7 D6 G CM7 G CM7
Oh, a child of the night is goin' to be born
G CM7 G CM7 G CM7
I can't explain my confusion
