Feist - When I Was a Young Girl

      Capo 3
(all chords relative to capo)

Am                       Dm             Am  
When I was a young girl I used to seek pleasure      
Am                       Dm              E
When I was a young girl I used to drink ale
Am                         Dm           Am
Out of the ale house down into the jail house
Am                      E           Am     
My body, salvated and hell is my doom

Am                       Dm             Am  
Come mama come papa and sit you down by me
Am                       Dm         Em
Come sit you down by me and pity my case
Am                         Dm           Am
My poor head is aching my sad heart in breaking
Am                      E           Am  
My body, salvated and hell is my doom

Am                       Dm             Am  
Please send for the preacher to come and pray for me
Am                       Dm             Em
And send for the doctor to heal all my wounds
Am                       Dm             Am  
My poor head is aching my sad heart in breaking
Am                      E           Am  
My body, salvated and I'm bound to die

One morning one morning one morning in may
I saw this young lady all wrapped in white linen
All wrapped in white linen and called out, "the plague"
