Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D]
[G]Sali went

[Verse 1]
down
She went down
Gonna meet the Devil
Down South
[D]Ohh, how can [G]it be?

[Verse 2]
[G]
Me and my girl
We had a quarrel
Didn't see her today
But I'll see her tomorrow
[D]Ohh, how can [G]it be?

[Verse 3]
[G]
Well, [C]run and tell your ma
Run and tell your pa
That [G]things ain't right
the way they are
[C]It's such a cruel and evil world
To [G]put an end to a golden girl
Well, oh, [D]my Lord
How can [G]it be?

[Verse 4]
[G]
Sali went down
She went down
Gonna meet the Maker
Down South
[D]Ohh, how can [G]it be?

[Verse 5]
[G]
It's enough to make the Devil cry
Throw the night out of the sky
You [C]called the wolves,
but the wolves don't come
Now, [G]how we gonna live
with the deeds he done?
Oh, [D]my Lord
How can [G]it be?

[Verse 6]
[G]
The Earth stood still
The Earth stood still
[C]Stood and stared,
it didn't do anything
[G]The Earth stood still
The Earth stood still
[C]Stood and stared,
it couldn't do anything
[G]Nothing makes sense now
Nothing makes sense now
[C]Everything's upside down
Nothing [G]makes sense now
Nothing makes sense now
[C]Everything's been turned [D]around
And, oh, God
Are you listening to me now?
I just can never forgive you
For this deed you let go down
[G]

[Verse 7]
Sali went down
She went down
Gonna meet the Devil
Down South
[D]Ohh, how can [G]it be?

[Verse 8]
[G]
So, [C]run and tell your ma
Run and tell your pa
That [G]things ain't right the way they are
[C]And don't you laugh
and don't you cry
'Cause you'll be an [G]angel by and by
Oh, by [D]and by
How can [G]it be?

[Verse 9]
[G]
Sali went down

[Outro 1]
She went down
[G]
