Tommy Roe - The folk singer

He ^Gused to sing his ^Amsongs to his ^BmSara ^AmJane.. the ^Dfolk ^Gsinger. ^GHis songs filled with ^Amlove made the ^Bmmountains ^Amring.. the ^Dfolk ^Gsinger. At ^Cfirst Sara Jane was to ^Bmbe his bride..but ^Amas his fame grew she was ^Gpushed aside. ^GSo, the mountain ^Amgirl would ^Bmsay good-^Ambye..to the ^Dfolk ^Gsinger.

He ^Glet his hair grow ^Amlong and he ^Bmdressed in ^Amstyle..the ^Dfolk ^Gsinger. ^GHis voice was ^Ampure and his ^Bmfans went ^Amwild..for the ^Dfolk ^Gsinger. He ^Amsaid, Sara Jane was ^Bmmuch too plain..so, he ^Amleft her alone as ^Ggained more fame. But ^Amsorrow will come like a ^Bmmountain ^Amrain..to the ^Dfolk ^Gsinger.

^G#Lavished in ^A#mglory, ^Cmfortune at his ^A#mfeet..the ^D#folk ^G#singer.. awoke one ^A#mmorning and he ^Cmcouldn't ^A#mspeak..the ^D#folk ^G#singer. The ^C#doctor said his singing ^Cmdays were through..^A#mthousands wept, Sara ^G#Jane did, too. He could not ^A#msing, now his ^Cmfriends were ^A#mfew..the ^D#folk ^G#singer.

^G#Sick at ^A#mheart in the ^Cmmountains a^A#mgain..the ^D#folk ^G#singer. Now, Sara ^A#mJane didn't ^Cmlook so ^A#mplain..to the ^D#folk ^G#singer. Oh, the ^C#power of love can ^Cmdo strange things, cause ^A#mlove has made him ^G#sing again..only now he ^A#msings for his ^CmSara ^A#mJane..the ^D#folk ^G#singer. And once a^A#mgain the ^Cmmountains ^A#mring..to the ^D#folk ^G#singer.
