That her name was Veronica

Well she used to have a carefree mind of her own
C

And a delicate look in her eye

These days I’m afraid she’s not even sure
F

F~C

If her name is Veronica
Dm

Do you suppose, that waiting hands on eyes
Dm7
G
Veronica has gone to hide?
Dm

And all the time she laughs at those
Dm7

Who shout her name and steal her clothes

And a young man sailed on a ship in the sea

And they call her name that they never get right
F
G
F~C

And if they don’t then nobody else will
C

But she used to have a carefree mind of her own

With devilish look in her eye
C

Saying “You can call me anything you like

But my name is Veronica”
