#(Intro:)
[G] [F] [G] [F] [G] [C] [G] [F]
[F] Had a bit part
[G] An endless reel
[Am] It always played in slo-[F]mo
[F] But now it's fast
[G] A spinning wheel
[C] I know the dyna[F]mo
My [F]heart is cast
(Chorus:)
[C] Speedy Ma[G]rie
[Bb] Ahead of the [D#]now
[F] She's better [C]built that's ho[G]w
She's built for [Bb]speed
[D#] Speedy Ma[F]rie
Speedy Ma[C]rie[G] [F]
Oh, yes indeed
I said to me
And so I sing this romaunt
It's not enough
My liberty
There is a thing I want
I need, I love
(repeat chorus)
Juxta[/Bb]posed[/C] in each [/D]moment's sig[/F]ht
Every[/Bb]thing[/C] that I [/D]ever sa[/F]w
And my [/Bb]one delig[/F]ht
Nothing [Bb]can [C] strike me [Dm]in such aw[F]e
Mouth intri[Bb]cate [C] shapes the [Dm]voice that spe[F]aks
Always [Bb]it will soo[F]the
Rarer none are the precious cheeks
Is the size of each sculpted tooth
Each lip and each eye
Wise it the tongue, wet of perfect thought
And softest neck where always do I
Lay my clumsy thoughts
She is that most lovely art
Happy are my mind and my soul
And my heart
