[G]He[F][G][Am][G][F][G][F]
[G]use to sing
[Am]his songs to [Bm]his Sara [Am]Jane
[D]The folk [G]singer
His songs filled with [Am]love made
[Bm]the mountains [Am]ring
To the [Adim]folk si[D]nger[G]
At [C]first Sara Jane was to [Bm]be his bride
But [Am]as his fame gr[D]ew,
she was [G]pushed aside
Sweet mountain [Am]girl
[Bm]would say good-bye
[Am]To To the fo[D]lk s[G]inger
He let his hair grow [Am]long and
[Bm]he dressed in [Am]style
The [D]folk [G]singer
His voice was [Am]pure and
[Bm]the fans went [Am]wild
For the [D]folk [G]singer
[C]He said Sara Jane was [Bm]much too plain
So he [Am]left her [D]alone as he
[G]gained more fame
But sorrow will [Am]come like
[G]a moun[Bm]tain [F]rain

[Cm]days were through
[Bbm]Thousands [Eb]wept, Sara [Ab]Jane did too
He could not sing,

The [F]folk [Eb]singe[Ab]r
Sick at [Bbm]heart in [Eb]the mountains again
[Bbm]The folk [Eb]singe[Ab]r
Now Sara [Bbm]Jane didn't
