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 

 
      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

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 


      Am        B/C      C 
Now I ain't the toughest hickory 
          F           C/G 
That your ax has ever felled 
          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
