Capo 1st fret

                        Em                           G
It was the dirty end of winter along the loom of the land
                         D     C           Em
When I walked with sweet Sally   hand upon hand
                    Em                     G
And the wind it bit bitter for a boy of no means
                     D    C                    Em
With no shoes on his feet   and a knife in his jeans
                      Em                     G
Along the loom of the land the mission bells pealed
                           D   C                   Em
From the tower at Saint Mary's   down to Reprobate Fields
                   Em                        G
And I saw that the world was all blessed and bright
                   D      C                 Em
And Sally breathed softly   in the majestic night

                         D
    Oh baby please don't cry
               Em
    And try to keep
                D            C
    Your little hand upon my shoulder
              Em
    Now go to sleep

The elms and the poplars were 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
My hands they burned in the folds of her coat
Breathing milky white air from deep in her throat

    Oh baby please don't cry
    And try to keep
    Your little head upon my shoulder
    Now go to sleep

    Ahh... ahh... ahh...

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
That it shone gold in 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

    Oh baby please don't cry
    And try to keep
    Your little head upon my shoulder
    Now try to sleep

    O baby please don't cry
    And don't you weep
    Lay your head upon my shoulder
    Now try to sleep

    Ahh... ahh... ahh...
    Ahh... ahh... ahh...
