Текст песни Misc Unsigned Bands - Dickey Lee - Patches

Patches:Dickey Lee.
#6 in 1962.

***In the original there are 4 key changes.
I marked them as capo/barre 1st fret, etc.***

#1.(Capo/barre 1st fret. Key )
Down by the river that flows by the coal yards,
stand wooden houses with shutters torn down. 
There lives a girl everybody calls Patches. 
Patches my darling of old Shanty town.

#2. (Capo/barre 2nd fret. Key )
We planned to marry when June brought the summer.
I couldn't wait to make Patches my bride.
Now I don't see how that ever can happen..
My folks say no, and my heart breaks inside.

Pat..ches, oh, what can I do? I swear I'll always love you.
But a girl from that place would just bring me disgrace,
so my folks won't let me love you.

#3. (Capo/barre 3rd fret. Key )
Each night I cry, as I think of that shanty.
And pretty patches there watching the door. 
She doesn't know that I can't come to see her..
Patches must think, that I love her no more.

#4. (Capo/barre 4th fret. Key )
I hear a neighbor telling my father..
He says a girl name of Patches was found,
floating face down in that dirty old river,
that flows by the coal yards in old Shan..ty town.

Pat..ches, oh, what can I do? I swear I'll always love you.
It may not be right but I'll join you tonight.. 
Patches I'm coming to you.

A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
