Sligo Fair by Jonathan Kelly Tuning: EADGBE Like the other tabs I�ve done (although they�re not technically tabs of course) this chord names as they would be without a capo. But for this and The Ballad or Cursed Anna, capo second fret on the original LP/CD. Enjoy. Intro: Am7, Em7, Am7, Em7, Am7, Am7, Em7 Am Fmaj7 She goes down to meet her Mam(?), returning from the fields. Am Fmaj7 A wicker basket on her arm and a spaniel at her heels. G Am Bb Am Em And as she picks wild flowers she wonders should she go or stay. Am Em Am Em Am Now that Sligo Fair is just a week away. Am7, Em7, Am7, Em7 Am Fmaj7 Her mind is on the back seat of the traveller�s caravan Am F maj7 Headed for the city and to a new life she could plan. G Am Am Em With no more days of waiting for her man to name the day. Am Em Am Em Am Now that Sligo Fair is just a week away. (bridge) E Emaj7 A E Hard to be a woman in the country life. A E E She don�t wanna be a milkmaid, she don�t wanna be a milkmaid. Bbmaj7 Am7 D She wants to be a wife... Em7... Am Fmaj7 Way above the Northern coast, the seagulls circle high. Am Fmaj7 As to the West the sinking sun spills gold across the sky. G Am Bb Am Em And homeward wends the Friesian herd to the ending of their day. Am Em Am Em Am And Sligo Fair is just a week away. (bridge) E Emaj7 A E Hard to be a woman in the country life. A E E She don�t wanna be a milkmaid, she don�t wanna be a milkmaid. Bbmaj7 Am7 D She wants to be a wife... Em7... Am Fmaj7 She goes down to meet her Mam, returning from the fields. Am Fmaj7 A wicker basket on her arm and a spaniel at her heels. G Am Bb Am Em And as she picks wild flowers she wonders should she go or stay. Am Em Am Now that Sligo Fair is just Am Em Am Sligo Fair is just Am Em Am Fmaj7 Sligo Fair is just a week away.
