[Eb] [Bb]
[F] [Bb]
Her mama picked him [Eb] up in South [Bb] Minnesota
He promised her the world but they never got that far
But he was less [Bb] seen in that 59'er soda
Than Sally was born in the [F] black hills [Bb] of Dakota
She was washed in the blood [Eb] of a [Bb] dying Sioux Nation
Faced with a [F] pride but a wandering [Bb] heart
She had had her roots where no other had
But she had stars in her [F] eyes and greater [Bb] expectations
[Eb] No rings [Bb] on her fingers, [F] no bells [Bb] on her toes
[Eb] The blood [Bb] on her [C] headlights, a thump [F] in her hose
[Eb] With the valley [F] of the shadow [Bb] of a rose, [Eb] the world's [Bb] told
La-di-do, South Dakota, [F] la-di-do, [Bb]
Sally Rose
[Eb] [Bb]
[F] She was born in a town of unhuman guard goddesses
[F] On the side of a mountain where [Bb] her forefathers roamed
They'd have boys and [Eb] Indians right [Bb] under their nose
But the [G] adorers of [F] elves and sheep [Bb] said, oh
So she left for Effington [Eb] in the blue moonlight [Bb]
hour
With her eye on the highway [F] and her foot on [Bb] the floor
And turning the dial she [Eb] was followed [Bb] by the power
Of the word coming out [F] of a [Bb] broadcasting tower
[Eb] No [Bb] rings on her [F] fingers, no [Bb] bells on her toes
The blood on her headlights, [C] a thump in [F] her hose
[Eb] With the valley [F] of the shadow [Bb] of a rose, [Eb] the world's told
La [Bb] -di-do, South [F] Dakota, la-di-do, [Bb] Sally Rose
