Sally Wheatley

Intro: C-Am-D-G

	G
Now I'm	most depressed and sad

	C	G
Where I	once was blithe and	glad

	C	G	D
I could	trip about the	town both trim and	neatly

	G	G*	G
I was	happy	night and	morn'

	C	G
But from	all such joys I'm	shorn

	C	Am	D	G
Since I	fell so deep in	love with Sally	Wheat	ley

Chorus:

	C	Em	D	G
And it's	Oh,	dear	me, what am	I gonna dee

	D
Sally stole away me heart com	pletely

	G	C	G
And I'll	never get it back, for she	gans with mister	Black

	C	Am	D	G
And they	say he's going to	marry Sally	Wheat	ley

	G
Now I	never saw such a lass

	C	G
And I	know she likes her	glass

	C	G	D
She could	toss a pot of	whiskey over	neatly

	G	G*	G
Now it's	right to	take a	drop

	C	G
When you	know just when to	stop

	C	Am	D	G
That was	just the very	way with Sally	Wheat	ley

Repeat Chorus

	G
How I	felt I didn't know

	C	G
The	first time I Sally	saw

	C	G	D
In a	threesome reel she	hopped about so	neatly

	G	G*	G
Well I	might have	had a	chance

	C	G
If I	asked her up to	dance

	C	Am	D	G
But I	was over shy to	speak to Sally	Wheatl	ey

Repeat Chorus

	G
Now he	must have made it right

	C	G
When he	took her home that	night

	C	G	D
'Cause	after work, dressed up, he	goes to see her	nightly

	G	G*	G
There's great	danger	in de	lay

	C	G
Or I	wouldn't be sad to	day

	C	Am	D	G
If I	had me heart to	break for Sally	Wheat	ley

Repeat Chorus twice

	C	Am	D	G
And they	say he's going to	marry Sally	Wheat	ley
