B♭m D♭
There were no cuckoos no sycamores
G♭ A♭
We played about the forest floor
E♭m D♭
Underneath the silver maple
A♭ B♭m
The balsams and the sky
B♭m D♭
We popped the heads off d.and.e.lions
G♭ A♭
Assuming roles from nusery rhymes
E♭m D♭
Rested on the riverbank
A♭ B♭m A♭ B♭m
And grew up by and by and grew up by and by
D♭
Frail my heart apart
A♭
And play me a little Shady Grove
D♭
Ring the bells of Rhymney
A♭
Till they ring inside my head forever
D♭ A♭
Bounce the bow rock the gallows
B♭m
For The Hangman's Reel
A♭ D♭
And wake the devil from his dream

I'm goin back to Harlan
I'm goin back to Harlan
I'm goin back to Harlan

And if you were Willie Moore
And I was Barbara Allen
Oh fair Ellen all sad at the cabin door
A weeping and a pinin for love
A weeping and a pinin for love

Frail my heart apart
And play me a little Shady Grove
Ring the bells of Rhymney
Till the ring inside my head forever
Bounce the bow, rock the gallows
For The Hangman's Reel
And wake the devil from his dream

I'm goin back to Harlan
I'm goin back to Harlan
I'm goin back to Harlan
I'm goin back to Harlan
I'm goin back to Harlan
I'm goin back to Harlan


From Emmylou Harris album _Wrecking Ball_
Asylum Records
