Fairport Convention - Open The Door Richard

      [Intro]
G

[Verse]
                                    Em                G
Well, there's certain things that I learned from Jim
                               D
He'd always make sure I'd understand
G                           Em
That there is a certain way that we all must swim
   C                                    D
If we expect to live off the fat of the land

[Chorus]
         Am
Open the door, Richard, I've heard it said before
Am
Open the door, Richard, I've heard it said before
      C           Bb              G
But I ain't gonna hear it said no more

[Verse]
                                     Em                             G
Well, there's a certain thing that I learned from my friend, Mouse
                     D
A man who never even blushes
G                             Em
That we must expect to always flush out our house
   C                           D
If we don't want to go housing flushes

[Chorus]
         Am
Open the door, Richard, I've heard it said before
Am
Open the door, Richard, I've heard it said before
      C           Bb              G
And I ain't gonna hear it said no more

"Take care of all of your memories", said Mick
                  D
"For you cannot relive them
  G                                  Em
Remember that when you're out there, trying to heal the sick
     C                        D
That you must always first forgive them"

[Chorus]
         Am
Open the door, Richard, I've heard it said before
Am
Open the door, Richard, I've heard it said before
      C           Bb              G
And I ain't gonna hear it said no more

[Chorus]
         Am
Open the door, Richard, I've heard it said before
Am
Open the door, Richard, I've heard it said before
      C           Bb              G
And I ain't gonna hear it said no more
