A Tale From Tahrarrie Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]
[Gm][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Mother, oh Mother,
he [F]asked me to [G]marry
He asked for my [F]hand [G]in [F]the fal[G]l
But Mother, oh Mother,
you said [F]child be [G]wary
When a sweet talking [F]man
[G]com[F]es to [G]call

[Verse 2]
He's [C]handsome,
he's charming [G]and so debonair
With [C]blue eyes and hair of pure [G]gold
On his [C]stallion of white,
[G]he's seen the whole world
But I long to see [F]deep in his [G]soul

[Verse 3]
To the [G]town of Tahrarrie, he
[F]took me out [G]dancing
Then we took [F]a walk by the [G]sea
We laughed and we talked
[F]and we did some ro[G]mancing
Love came like a [F]soft gentle
[G]breeze[Gm]
[G]But Mother,

[Verse 4]
[C]oh Mother,
[G]how can I know
What [C]his heart holds deep
down in[G]side
[C]You've always warned me
the [G]trouble with love
It makes truth out of [F]nothing but [G]lies

[Verse 5]
He [G]promised the treasures much
[F]more than I [G]dreamed[Gm][G]
He placed a fine [F]ring on [G]my hand
He pledged me his love,
swore he'd [F]make me his [G]queen
We'd travel [F]to far distant [G]lands

[Verse 6]
But [C]Mother, oh Mother, [G]what if I go
And [C]find that his love is not [G]true
But [C]if I refuse him, [G]what if [Gm]I lose [G]him
Oh Mother, [F]what shall I [G]do

[Interlude 1]
[G][F][G][Gm]
[G][F][G][F][G][F][G][Gm]
[G]

[Verse 7]
Part of me wants to [F]let go of my [G]heart
Part of me [F]says run [G]away
Run from the flame of this
[F]burning de[G]sire
That seems to grow [F]stronger [G]each day

[Verse 8]
[G]Mother, oh Mother, he [F]asked me [G]to marry
He asked for my [F]hand [G]in the fall
But Mother, oh Mother,
you said [F]child be [G]wary
When a sweet talking [F]man comes [G]to call
