Flora

Flora Peter Paul and Mary Tabbed by Parkie Capo on the third fret. This is played very fast. At the end of each verse use your little finger to play a G on the high string while playing the Am (002213-002210). Do the same with the Em in the intro too. You can also get some lovely hammer-ons with any of these chords if they are played for more than about three beats:     EADGBe     EADGBe Am: 000210  -  002210 Em: 002000  -  022000 G:  300003  -  320003 Hope that makes sense. Good luck! Intro:              When first I came to Louisville my fortune there to find I met a fair young maiden there her beauty filled my mind. Her rosy cheek her ruby lips they gave my heart no rest. The name she bore was Flo------ra       the lily of the west. I courted lovely Flora she promised ne’er to go. But soon a tale was told to me that filled my heart with woe. They said she meets another man who holds my love in jest. And yet I trusted Flo----ra        the lily of the west. ’Way down in yonder shady grove a man of low degree He spoke unto my Flora there and kissed her ’neath a tree. The answers that she gave to him like arrows pierced my breast. I was betrayed by Flo---ra        the lily of the west. I stepped up to my rival my dagger in my hand. I seized him by the collar and I ordered him to stand. All in my desperation I stabbed him in his breast. I killed a man for Flo---ra        the lily of the west. And then I had to stand my trial I had to make my plea. They placed me in a pris’ner’s dock and then commenced on me. Although she swore my life away deprived me of my rest. Still I love my faithless Flo---ra        the lily of the west. Lovely tune. Good luck finding a strumming pattern that works!
