Maiden Tab

by Vic Chesnutt


"Maiden" by Vic Chesnutt, from the album "the salesman and bernadette"

intro = 
                  
Dogs are barkin', birds are chirpin'
                           
the only thing better is if I were squirtin'
                                  
there's no one here to love on me today
                     
for the maidens on holiday
                     
yeah the maidens on holiday

verse 2= i'm a sorry sorry knight in a horrible castle
         hopin' to avoid certain societal hassles
         but i know what they say, that i ain't made of clay
         for the maidens on holiday, yeah the maidens on holiday

bridge=

I ain't nothin' but chivalrous

ain't never been nothing nasty between us

she knows where she stands
                               
on the heart of a broken man

         
verse 3= it's gonna be bad no matter what
         so i might as well go on ahead and act like a butt
         any old way, hey i'm still gonna pay
         for the maidens on holiday, yeah the maidens on holiday

there ya go - super fun to sing like vic !!!!!!!!!
