Chords for Songcatcher - Mary of the Wild Moors - Sara Evans

On a _ cold [F#]
winter's night, _ _ [B] as the winds blew across the [F#] wild _ _
_ [F#] moor, _ _
[B] poor Mary [F#] came _ wandering _ _ [B] home _ with [B] her _ child,
_ till she came to her [C#] own _ [B] father's door. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F#] _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ [B] _
But, oh [F#] Papa, she cried,
_ _ Come down [C#] and open [F#] the door,
or [B] the child in [F#] my arms [B] will perish [E] and die
from [B] the winds [F#] that blow across the wild moor. _
[E] _ [B] _ _ _ _ [F#] _
But the [B] old man was deaf to [B] her _ cries,
and not a sound of [C#] her voice did [F#] he _ hear.
[B] While the watchdog [F#] did howl and [B] the village [E] bell tolled,
[B] the winds blew [F#] across the [B] wild moor.
[E] _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ [C#] _ _ [B] _
But the [F#] old man must [B] have felled,
_ when he came [C#] to the door the [F#] next morn,
_ and [B] he found Mary [F#] dead.
[B] But the child [E] yelled,
I'm [B] clutched close to [F#] his dead _ [B] mother's [E] breast.
_ _ [B] _ _ _
_ Now the old [F#] man in grief pined away, _ _
_ and the babe to [C#] its mother _ [F#] whistled. _ _
[B] And no one, [F#] they say, has [B] lived there to [E] this day,
[B] and the cottage [F#] is left [B] to run.
_ [E] _ _
[B] _ _ _ [C#] _ _
[B] Now the villagers [F#] point out [B] the _ place _
where the abbey [C#] goes over [F#] the _ door,
[G#] _
[B] saying there Mary [F#] died [B] once a fair [E] village bride
[B] from the winds that blew [F#] across the [B] wild [C#] moor.
[E] From [B] the winds that blew [F#] across the wild [A#] moor. _
