I laid on [G] the dune, [Am] I looked at the sky, when [D] the children were babies, [Em] we played on the
beach.
You came up behind me, I [Am] saw you go by, you [D] were always so close, [E] still within
reach.
[Em]
[Bm] Sarah, [C] Sarah,
[D] whatever made you [C] want to [Em] change your mind?
Sarah, Sarah, whatever
[B] made you want to change your mind?
Sarah, [Am] Sarah, [D] so easy to look at, so [C] hard to [Em] define.
I can still see them playing with their [Am] tails in the sand, [D] they're under the [E] water, their
pockets [Em] too filled.
I can still [A] see the [Bm] shells falling [Am] out of their hands, [D] as they follow
each other [Em] back up again.
[B] Sarah,
[C] Sarah, [D] sweet virgin angel, [Em] sweet love of my life.
[B] Sarah,
[C]
Sarah, [D] radiant jewel, [C]
a mystical [Em] wife.
Sleeping in the woods by a fire [Am] in the night, [D]
drinking
white rum in [E] a Portugal [Em]
bar.
Them playing leap frog and [Am] hearing about Snow White, [D] you
in the marketplace in [C] Savannah, [Em] Lamar.
[G]
[B] Sarah, [C] Sarah, [D] it's all so clear, I [C] could never [Em] forget.
[G] [Bm] Sarah, [C] Sarah, [D]
loving you is the one thing [C] I'll never [Em] regret.
Sarah, Sarah, I'll never
regret.
I can still hear the [G] sounds of those [Am] Methodist bells, [D] I've taken the cure [Em] and
it just got through.
Staying up for days in the [Am] Chelsea Hotel, [D] writing Sarah, [C] lady of
the lowlands [E] for [G] you.
Sarah, [C] Sarah, [G] [D] wherever we travel [Am] we're never [Em] apart.
Sarah, Sarah,
[Bm]
[C] [D]
beautiful lady [C] so dear to [Em] my heart.
How did I meet you?
I [Am] don't know.
[D] A messenger sent
me [C] in a tropical [Em]
storm.
You were there in the winter, [Am]
moonlight on the snow, [D] and on
Lily Pond Lane [C] when the weather was [G] warm.
Sarah, [Am]
[G] [D] Scorpio, you were there in the summer,
your spring in [Em] a Calico dress.
[G] [Bm] Sarah, [C] Sarah, [D] you must forgive me my [C] [Em]
unworthiness.
How the
beaches deserted except [Am] for some kelp [G] and a piece [D] of an old [E] ship that lies on [Em] the shore.
You always responded [Am] when I needed your help.
[D] You gave me a map and [Em] a key to get to the
yard door.
[Bm] Sarah, [Am] Sarah,
[D] glamorous nymph [C] with an arrow [G] and bow.
Sarah, [C] [G] [D]
don't ever leave
[C] me, don't ever [Em] go.
