Princess In Rags:Gene Pitney. #9 UK, #2 Canada, #37 in USA in '65. #1. INTRO: G G7 C

There's a ^Cgirl who lives ^C7down the track, in a little shack made of ^Ftimber wood. And her ^Gclothes are all ^Fhand-me-downs, from the folks in town who treat ^Cher so good.

CHORUS:

Though she hasn't got a ^C7dime, I'm so ^Fproud that she's all ^Dmine.. cause to ^Gme she's a ^G7Princess in ^Crags.

#2.

Now her ^CDad, he's a ^C7worn-out man, prayin' if he can make ^Fenough to eat. And her ^GMom cleans for ^Feveryone, till the day is done, just to ^Cmake ends meet.

CHORUS:#2.

All her wealth is in her ^C7charms, and the ^Fsweetness of her ^Darms.. how I ^Glove my poor ^G7Princess in ^Crags.

#3.

I know some ^Fday I'll find a ^Gway to take her ^Cout of this old place. I'll ^Dwork and ^D7slave, ^Dscrimp and ^D7save, To ^Gchange her rags to ^G7silk and lace.

#4.

Though it ^Churts and my ^C7body aches.. From the pain it takes just to ^Fset things right. But for ^Gnow I must ^Fbe content, with each moment spent in her ^Carms each night.

#5.

She's the only girl for ^C7me, and some ^Fday it's gotta ^Dbe.. Just ^Gme and my ^G7Princess in ^Crags...(x2)

A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
