Intro: Am, F, G

Verse 1:

Am      F          G          D        Am
In the half-tone light of a young morning
      C            D             E         
she sighs and shifts on the pillow.
         F         G         D                 F
And across her face dancing, the first shadows fly
    G               Am
to kiss the Pussy Willow.

Verse 2:

Am     F             G           D          Am
In her fairy-tale world she's a lost soul singing
       C         D        E
in a sad voice nobody hears.
          F        G         D    F
She waits in her castle of make-believing
          G              Am
for her white knight to appear.

Chorus 1:

Am                    C          G
Pussy Willow --- down fur-lined avenue
Am                            F          G
brushing the sleep from her young woman eyes.
Am                                          G
Runs for the train --- see, eight o'clock's coming
F                       G       D
cutting dreams down to size again.

   Rest of song half step up

Chorus 2:

A#m                    C#         G#
Pussy Willow --- down fur-lined avenue
A#m                           F#         G#
brushing the sleep from her young woman eyes.
A#m                                        G#
Runs from the train. Hear her typewriter humming
F#                      G#      D#
cutting dreams down to size again.

Verse 3:

F#             G#             D#            A#m
She longs for the East and a pale dress flowing
C#               D#     F
an apartment in old Mayfair.
F#              G#                 D#             F#
Or to fish the Spey, spinning the first run of Spring
G#                          A#m
or to die for a cause somewhere.

Chorus 3:

A#m                    C#          G#
Pussy Willow --- down fur-lined avenue
A#m                          F#          G#
brushing the sleep from her young woman eyes.
A#m                                        G#
Runs from the train. Hear her typewriter humming
F#                      G#     D#
cutting dreams down to size again.

Outro:
A#m               F#      G#
Pussy Willow--- ah, ah--- ah            repeat 3x, then fade out
