Sally Simpson Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Out[G][C][G]
[C]side the house
[G]Mr Simpson announced
[C]that Sally couldn't go to the [G]meeting
He [C]went on cleaning his [G]blue Rolls Royce
and [C]she ran inside weep[G]ing
She [C]got to her room and tears
[G]splashed the picture
[C]of the new Messi[G]ah
She [C]picked up a book [G]of her fathers life
and [C]threw it on [G]the fire
She [F]knew from the start Deep

[Verse 2]
[F]
down in her heart
That she and Tommy were [G]worlds apart
But her [F]Mother said never [C]mind your part
Is to [D]be what you'll [G]be[C]

[Verse 3]
[C]The theme of the sermon
was [G]come unto me
[C]Love will find [G]a way
So [C]Sally decided to ig[G]nore her dad
and [C]sneak out [G]anyway
She [C]spent the afternoon [G]getting ready
De[C]cided she'd try to [G]touch him
[C]Maybe he'd see that [G]she was free
and [C]talk to her this [G]Sunday
She [F]knew from the start Deep

[Verse 4]
[F]
down in her heart
That she and Tommy were [G]worlds apart
But her [F]Mother said never [C]mind your part
Is to [D]be what you'll [G]be[C]

[Verse 5]
She [C]arrived at six and the
[G]place was swinging
to [C]gospel music by [G]nine
[C]Group after group appeared [G]on the stage
and [C]Sally just sat there [G]crying
She [C]bit her nails looking
[G]pretty as a picture
[C]right in the very front [G]row
Then a [C]DJ wearing [G]a blazer with a badge
ran [C]on and said Here [G]we go

[Verse 6]
[G]The [D]crowd went [G]crazy
As [D]Tommy hit [G]the stage
Little [D]Sally got lost as the
[G]police bossed
[A]The crowd back in a rage
[D]

[Verse 7]
[C]Soon the atmosphere [G]was cooler
as [C]Tommy gave a les[G]son
[C]Sally just had to let him
[G]know she loved him
and [C]leapt up on [G]the rostrum
She [C]ran cross stage [G]to the spotlit figure
and [C]touched him on [G]the face
[C]Tommy whirled around
as a [G]uniformed man
[C]threw her off [G]the stage
[F]She knew from the start Deep

[Verse 8]
[F]
down in her heart
That she and Tommy were [G]worlds apart
But her [F]Mother said never [C]mind your part
Is to [D]be what you'll [G]be[C]

[Verse 9]
Her [C]cheek hit a chair and blood
[G]trickled down
[C]mingling with her [G]tears
[C]Tommy carried on [G]preaching
[C]and his voice filled [G]Sally's ears
She [C]caught his eye she [G]had to try
but he [C]couldn't see through the light[G]s
Her [C]face was gashed and the [G]ambulance
men had to [C]carry her out that [G]night
The [D]crowd went

[Verse 10]
[G]crazy
As [D]Tommy left [G]the stage
[D]Little Sally was lost for the [G]price of a touch
And a [A]gash across her [D]face OOoooh

[Verse 11]
Six[C]teen stitches put her [G]right
and her Dad said
[C]don't say I didn't warn [G]yer
[C]Sally got married to a [G]rock musician
she [C]met in Califor[G]nia
[C]Tommy always talk[G]s about the day
the dis[C]ciples all went [G]wild
[C]Sally still carries [G]a scar on her cheek
to re[C]mind her of his [G]smile

[Verse 12]
[G]
She [F]knew from the start
Deep down in her heart
That she and Tommy were [G]worlds apart
But her [F]Mother said never [C]mind your part
Is to [D]be what you'll [G]be
