I'm really sorry Steven

I meant her no harm

I was just running in
MI MIb
Didn't think I'd be that long

I came out, she was gone
MI SOL#
And all that was there was some bored old dog
DO# LA MI
Leashed up to the place where your bicycle had been
FA# SI
Guess we'll never see poor Madeleine again
Verse 3 (match verse 1 for chords):
Let this be consolation, Steven
That all the while you were in England
I treated her with care and respect
And have her lots of love
And I was usually pretty good 'bout locking her up
Chorus 2 (match chorus 2 for chords):
Where has she gone?
Well, I bet she's on the bottom of a Frenchtown pond
Rudely abused on some hescher's joyride
So I wrote you this song
In the hopes that you'd forgive me
Even though it was wrong
Being so careless with a thing so great
And taking your poor Madeleine away, away
