Fm It was the dirty end of winter G# Along the loom of the land D# C# When I walked with sweet Sally Fm Hand upon hand Fm And the wind it bit bitter G# For a boy of no means D# C# With no shoes on his feet Fm And a knife in his jeans Fm Along the loom of the land G# The mission bells pealed D# C# From the tower at Saint Mary's Fm Down to Reprobate Fields Fm And I saw that the world G# Was all blessed and bright D# C# And Sally breathed softly Fm In the majestic night Chorus: D# O baby please don't cry Fm And try to keep D# C# Your little hand upon my shoulder Fm Now go to sleep Well the elms and the poplars Were all turning their backs Past the rumbling station We followed the tracks We found an untrodden path And followed it down The moon in the sky Like a dislodged crown And my hands they burned In the folds of her coat Breathing milky white air From deep in her throat Chorus: Oh baby please don't cry And try to keep Your little head upon my shoulder Now go to sleep I told Sally in whispers I'll never bring you harm Her breast it was small And warm in my palm I told her the moon Was a magical thing It shone gold in the winter And silver in spring And we walked and walked Across the endless sands Just me and my Sally Along the loom of the land Chorus: Oh baby please don't cry And try to keep Your little head upon my shoulder Now try to sleep Oh baby please don't cry And don't you weep Lay your head upon my shoulder Now try to sleep | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsC# D# Fm G# Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
