Tabbed by Thomas Antonovich
G G7/Gb
Sweet Sir Galahad came in through the window
Em Am Am(sus) Am * fill 1
In the night when the moon was in the yard.
D (switch between picking open D and A string)
Took her hand in his and shook the long hair
Em
From his neck and he told her she'd been working much to hard.
G G7/Gb
It was true that ever since the day
Em Am
Her crazy man had passed away to the land of poet's pride, * Fill 1
D
She laughed and talked a lot with new people on the block,
Em
But always at evening time she cried.
C B5 D Em
And here's to the dawn of their days.
* * BRIDGE Progression (Played with humming after 1st Chorus)
G ---- G7/Gb ---- Em ----- B5 ---- C ---- B5 ---- Am ---- Em
She moved her head a little down on the bed
Until it rested softly on his knee. *Fill 1
There she dropped her smile and there she sat awhile,
Told him all the sadness of those years that numbered three.
Well you know I think my fate's belated 'cause of all the hours I waited
For the day when I'd no longer cry. *Fill 1
Get myself to work by eight, well oh, was I born too late?
Do you think I'll fail at every single thing I try?
And here's to the dawn of their days.
Well, he just put his arm around her and that's the way I found her
Eight months later to the day. *Fill 1
Lines of a smile erased the tear tracks upon her face,
The smile that could linger even stayed.
**(Play BRIDGE Progression) **
Sweet Sir Galahad went down
With his gay bride of flowers
The prince of the hours
Of her lifetime
