A# D# And I'm caught one more time, A# D# A# up on Cyprus Avenue. D# A# D# A# Caught one more time, up on Cyprus Avenue. F D# And I'm conquered in a car seat; not a thing that A# D# A# F I can do. I may go crazy Before that mansion on the hill I may go crazy Before that mansion on the hill But my heart keeps beating faster And my feet can't keep still And all the little girls rhyme something On the way back home from school And all the little girls rhyme something On the way back home from school And the leaves fall one by one And call the autumn time a fool Yeah, my t-tongue gets tied Every, every, every time I try to speak My tongue gets tied Every time I try to speak And my inside shakes just like a leaf on a tree I think I'll go walking by the railroad with my cherry, cherry wine I believe I'll go walking by the railroad with my cherry, cherry wine If I pass the rumbling station where the lonesome engine drivers pine Wait a minute, yonder come my lady Rainbow ribbons in her hair Yonder come my lady Rainbow ribbons in her hair Six white horses and a carriage She's returning from the fair Baby, baby, baby Well, I'm caught one more time Up on Cyprus Avenue I'm caught one more time Up on Cyprus Avenue And I'm conquered in a car seat And I'm looking straight at you Way up on, way up on, way up on The avenue of trees Keep walking down In the wind and the rain, darling You keep walking down when the sun shone through the trees Nobody, no, no, no, no, nobody stops me from loving you baby So young and bold, fourteen-year old Baby, baby, baby You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  D#  F  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
