[Verse 1]

C#7
Dolly
C#7                                      D#m
The dog that lives in the woods makes me jealous
D#m                                     C#7
That I could be running like she by the cold stream
C#7                                            D#m
Then I wouldn't be sitting with drinks at your table
D#m
Mentioning words understood

[Chorus]

      G#
I was taken
     C#7
By a taken girl
     C#7
By a taking girl
         B
I mean a taking world
        G#m
Will it always be
        C#7
What we think it should be?
     C#7
Will reality
       B
Stay a mystery?
         G#m
But it's taken
       D#m
All my aching boy
        C#7
It's my dream of choice
     B
It's awakened in me
       G#m
But it never was
     D#m
Only was in dreams
        C#7
All its pretty things
    B
Are taken, boy


[Verse 2]

C#7
Downers
C#7                                         D#m
That's something she doesn't see fitting in her life
D#m                                             C#7
But then, how could you after you heard all the stories?
C#7                                         D#m
And then, someone says people can see all dimensions, and
D#m
He runs off kissing the trees


[Chorus]
        G#
And I'm taken
     C#7
By a taken girl
     C#7
By a taking girl
           B
I mean our taking world
        G#m
Will it always be
        C#7
What we think it should be?
     C#7
Will realities
       B
Stay a mystery?
          G#m
But she's taken
       D#m
All my aching boy
         C#7
She's my dream of choice
      B
She's awakened in me
       G#m
But it never was
     D#m
Only was in dreams
        C#7
All her pretty things
      B
To be taken, boy
