Donovan - Lovely Princess        ( 
capo 2) 

This is a beautiful song. I don't know why it's not included in any albums. 
It's featured in the Donovan In Concert DVD. The chords are fairly simple, but it has a few 
flourishes and arrangements that take a few tries to get just right. 

G (to the) C (x2) A||---0--2--3-| 
                  E||-3---------| 

C                          Am 
There in her Dresden bath chamber 
F                       G 
Spacious mirror, yellow gold 
C                 Am 
I often dream of disrobing 
F                    G 
My lady, may I be so bold 
                                            (fill 1) 
F       G           C (fill 1)           E||-----------0-1 
I’m in love with a princess              B||-(1)-0-1-3---- 
F              G            C (/B) 
Will her hand ever grace my own? 
Am                   F 
I’m in love with a princess 
       C      G        C    (+G on the first string) 
Ooh, lovely Princess Anne 

There on the good old TV, la-la-la-la 
In a domestic situation 
’Twas there I saw her fair continence 
I cannot hurl off this station 

Love comes not only to a princess 
All are blessed or cursed with the shaft 
I’m in love with a princess 
Ooh, lovely Princess Anne (+G - (G)  A, B, C single notes) 

C            G            Am 
There in the grand dining hall 
F                          G 
She looked so innocent and wise 
C       G           Am 
With a foam-like softness 
F                           G 
In a misty dream within her eyes 

I’m in love with a princess 
Her hand will never grace my own 
I’m in love with a princess 
Ooh, lovely Princess Anne (+G - G, A, B, C single notes) 

And late at night upon silk pillows 
She wanders through her peasant dreams 
Once kissed princes changed to froggies 
The fairy tale reversed it seems 

F           G        C 
But I’m in love with a princess 
F              G             C    G        Am 
Will her hand ever grace my own? La-la-de-la-la 
(Am)                 F 
I’m in love with a princess 
C            G        C  (stop strumming) 
Ooh, lovely princess Anne 

G   Am 

(Am) G           F 
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ohh 
      C    G       C 
Ooh, lovely princess Anne
