THE BALLAD OF SALLY ANNE
                (Alice Randall, Harry Stinson, Mark O'Connor)
                From Mark O'Connor - "The New Nashville Cats"

(Intro:)  | G   C   C   G  | G   Am  D   G  | G   Am  D   G |

     G                     C                   C                  G
With love in his heart and flowers in his hand Johnny proposed to Sally Ann
G              Am                 D                 G
Sally shivered as she said, "I'll love you 'til the day I'm dead"

(Instrumental)   G     Am   D   G

Johnny got married in his one good suit
But the ride from church bore strange fruit
Down by road you can hear her cry
As he hung from a tree, she watched him die

Chorus:
G                      Am        D                     G
Who's gonna dance with Sally Ann Who's gonna touch her tremblin' hand
G                Am              D                      G
When the fiddler takes the stand Who's gonna dance with Sally Ann

(Instrumental)  | G   C   C   G  | G   Am  D   G  | G   Am  D   G |

Sally attends every wedding 'round here Lookin' for her Johnny dear
You can feel them in the room If the fiddler plays that tune

(Chorus)

G                 G           G                 G
                              Sail away ladies, Sail away!
                              Sail away ladies, Sail away!

(Modulate to A)

(Instrumental)  | A   D   D   A  | A   D   D   A  | A   Bm  E   A |
                | A   D   D   A  | A   Bm  E   A  | A   Bm  E   A |

Darkened shadows cross the floor As ghostly lovers dance once more
When weddin' bells ring in that town A ghostly virgin strolls the ground

(Chorus)

(Instrumental)  | A   D   D   A  | A   D   D   A  |

(Chorus)
