Gordon Lightfoot
Sundown
1973

I ordered Gord's Gold from Columbia House after
a lot of people suggested him.  I found that I
knew quite a few of his songs.  Here's the first
I've done by him, and I hope you like it.

Capo 3rd

      E
I can see her lyin' back in her satin dress
     B                          E
In a room where you do what you don't confess

CHORUS
E              A
   Sundown you better take care
     D                             E
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back stairs
E              A
   Sundown you better take care
     D                             E
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back stairs


She's been lookin like a Queen in a sailor's dream
And she don't always say what she really means

CHORUS
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain


I can picture every move that a man could make
Gettin lost in her lovin' is your first mistake

CHORUS
Sundown you better take care
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back stairs
Sometimes I think it's a sin
When I feel like I'm winnin' when I'm losin' again


GUITAR SOLO

E7
E


I can see her lookin' fast in her faded jeans
She's a hard-lovin' woman got me feelin' mean

CHORUS
Sometimes I think it's a shame
When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
Sundown you better take care
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back stairs
Sundown you better take care
If I find you been creepin' 'round my back stairs
Sometimes I think it's a sin
When I feel like I'm winnin' when I'm losin' again
