The Landlord's Daughter [Wicker Man soundtrack]

G                         A7 
Much has been said of the strumpets of yore 
   D7                      G 
Of wenches and bawdy house queens by the score, 
    G7                       C 
But I sing of a baggage that we all adore 
A7             D 
The landlord's daughter 
 
        G                      A7 
Oh, her lips are as roses, her wine is a treat, 
    D7                     G 
her whisky is good and her figure is neat; 
    G7                       C 
and while she is serving her bitter, she’s sweet: 
    A7         D 
the Landlord’s Daughter. 
 
       C           G 
You'll never love another, 
  A7 
Although she's not the kind of girl 
                        D 
To take home -- to your mother! 
 
(intermezzo) 
 
    G                 A7 
Her ale is lively and strong to the taste, 
   D7                         G 
is brewed with discretion and never with haste, 
        G7                       C 
You can have all you like if you swear not to waste 
    A7         D 
The landlord's daughter 
 
    C                 G 
And when her name is mentioned, 
    A7 
The parts of every gentleman 
                     D 
do stand up -- at attention! 
 
(intermezzo2) 
 
D7          G                       A7 
Now there's Jane of the Blossom and Doll of the Crown, 
       D7                     G 
Pretty Kate of the Garter and Star, down in town, 
    G7                      C 
Fat Dolly who keeps the Red Hart of renown, 
    A7                       D 
but I'll take the Landlord's Daughter. 
 
   C             G 
Oh nothing can delight so, 
   A7 
as does the part that lies between 
                        D 
her left toe -- and her right toe!
