Johnny Cash - Mary of the wild moor

It was ^Gon one ^Dcold winter ^Gnight When the ^Gwind blew a^A7cross the wild ^D7moor When ^GMary came ^Dwandering ^Ghome with her ^Cchild Till she ^Gcame to her ^D7own father's ^Gdoor

"^GFather, dear ^Dfather," she ^Gcried "Come ^Gdown and ^A7open the ^D7door Or the ^Gchild in my ^Darms will ^Gperish and ^Cdie From the ^Gwinds that blow a^D7cross the wild ^Gmoor"

But her ^Gfather was ^Ddeaf to her ^Gcry Not a ^Gsound of a ^A7voice did he ^D7hear So the ^Gwatchdog did ^Dhowl and the ^Gvillage bells ^Ctolled And the ^Gwind blew a^D7cross the wild ^Gmoor

Oh, ^Ghow the old ^Dman must have ^Gfelt When he ^Gcame to the ^A7door the next ^D7morn' And he ^Gfound Mary ^Ddead but the ^Gchild still a^Clive Closely ^Ggrasping its ^D7dead mother's ^Garms

In ^Ggrief the old ^Dman passed a^Gway And the ^Gchild to its ^A7mother went ^D7soon And ^Gno one, they ^Dsay, lives ^Gthere to this ^Cday And the ^Gcottage to ^D7ruin has ^Ggone

But the ^Gvillagers ^Dpoint out the ^Gspot Where the ^Gwillows grew ^A7over the ^D7door Saying, "^GThere Mary ^Ddied, once the ^Ggay village ^Cbride From the ^Gwind that blew a^D7cross the wild ^Gmoor"
