Verse 1:
Dear S[G]arah I’m stuck on a t[C]rain bound for Richm[G]ond.
We marched down from Gurnstown uph[D]ill all the way.
At the t[G]rain stop in Stanton, we p[C]ulled up and climbed [G]on
Then we just sat there for a n[D]ight and a d[G]ay.
Chorus:
A[G]nd the nights are l[D]ong, but I write you ev[G]’ry day.
And I hum a s[D]ong that you u[G]sed to sing.
The one of sweet William his l[C]ove, Barbara A[G]llen
And how she was al[D]ways a long ways a[G]way.
[G]
Verse 2:
My i[G]nsides are all torn from h[C]ard tack and parch c[G]orn.
My hat flew in a windstorm so the s[D]un has turned me red.
The f[G]irst chance to lie still I p[C]ull out your Bib[G]le
But fall fast asleep before o[D]ne verse is r[G]ead.
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 3:
Dear S[G]arah in parting keep [C]me in your he[G]art.
I do not drink or gamble ‘cause I p[D]romised you I’d do.
So as n[G]ot to mislead y[C]ou I did have a n[G]eed to
When we were surrounded and l[D]ooked like we were t[G]hrough.
(Repeat Chorus)
Tag:
The o[G]ne of sweet William, his l[C]ove Barbara All[G]en
And how she was a[D]lways a long ways a[G]way.
Ending:
In [G]Scarlet T[D]own, I did d[G]well. There was a fa[D]ir maid a-[G]dwellin’.
Many men c[D]ried, w[G]ell, for the love B[D]arbara A[G]llen.
