Lady May Ukulele chords by Tyler Childers

🎸 Intro:

C/G F C/G F C/G Am B/C C/G



🎸 Verse :

C
I'm a stone's throw from the mill
   F      C/G
And I'm a good walk to the river
  F    C/G
When my workin' day is over
    Am  B/C C/G
We'll go swim our cares away
C/G
Put your toes down in the water
  F      C/G
And a smile across your face
  F     C/G
And tell me that you love me
Am   B/C C/G
Lovely Lady May

🎸 Chorus:

  Am    B/C   C/G
Now I ain't the sharpest chisel
    F    C/G
That your hands have ever held
 Am       B/C  C/G
But darlin' I could love you well
    F       C/G
Til' the roll is called on high
  Am   B/C  C/G
I've seen my share of trouble
   F      C/G
And I've held my weight in shame
   Am   B/C   C/G
But I'm baptized in your name
F    C/G
Lovely Lady May

C/G F C/G F C/G A B/C C/G



🎸 Verse :

C
Lord the wind can leave you shiverin'
  F      C/G
As it waltzes o'er the leaves
    Am   B/C   C/G
It's been rushin' through my timber
    F      C/G
Til' your love brought on the spring
C/G
Now the mountains all are blushin'
   F      C/G
And they don't know what to say
   Am   B/C   C/G
'Cept a good long line of praises
   F   C/G
For my lovely Lady May

🎸 Chorus:

  Am     B/C  C
Now I ain't the toughest hickory
    F    C/G
That your ax has ever fell
   F      C/G
But I'm a hickory just as well
   Am   B/C   C
I'm a hickory all the same
   Am   B/C    C
I came crashin' through the forest
  F    C/G
As you cut my roots away
  Am   B/C   C/G
And I fell a good long ways
  F    C/G
For my lovely Lady May
