Am x02210
D  xx0232

  Em                Am
I laid on a dune, I looked at the sky,
         D                        Em
When the children were babies and played on the beach

                         Am
You came up behind me, I saw you go by
         D                   Em
You were always so close and still within reach

G  Bm  C
Sa-ra, Sara,
D                         C           Em
Whatever made you want to change your mind

G  Bm  C
Sa-ra, Sara,
   D                   C         Em
So easy to look at, so hard to define


VERSE2:
Chords:
Em 022000
Am x02210
D  xx0232

      Em                                Am
I can still see them playin' with their pails in the sand
     D                       Em
They run to the water, their buckets to fill

                                   Am
I can still see the shells fallin' out of their hands
        D                 Em
As they follow each other back up the hill


CHORUS2:
Chords:
G  320033    D  xx0232
Bm x24432    Em 022000
C  x32010

G  Bm  C
Sa-ra, Sara,
D                         C          Em
Sweet virgin angel, sweet love of my life

G  Bm  C
Sa-ra, Sara,
D              C         Em
Radiant jewel, mystical wife


VERSE3:
Sleepin' in the woods by a fire in the night,
Drinkin' white rum in a Portugal bar.
Them playin' leapfrog and hearin' about Snow White
You in the market-place in Savanna-la-mar


CHORUS3:
Sa-ra, Sara,
It's all so clear, I could never forget

Sa-ra, Sara,
Lovin' you is the one thing I will never regret


VERSE4:
I can still hear the sounds of those Methodist bells
I'd taken the cure and had just gotten through
Stayin' up for days in the Chelsea Hotel
Writin' "Sad-Eyed Lady of the Lowlands" for you


CHORUS4:
Sa-ra, Sara,
Wherever we travel, we're never apart

Sa-ra, Sara,
Beautiful lady, so dear to my heart


VERSE5:
How did I meet you? I don't know.
A messenger sent me in a tropical storm
You were there in the winter, moonlight on the snow
And on Lily Pond lane when the weather was warm


CHORUS5:
Sa-ra, Sara,
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress

Sa-ra, Sara,
You must forgive me my unworthiness


VERSE6:
Now the beach is deserted except for some kelp
And a piece of an old ship that lies on the shore
You always responded when I needed your help
You give me a map and a key to your door


CHORUS6:
Sa-ra, Sara,
Glamourous nymph with an arrow and bow

Sa-ra, Sara,
Don't ever leave me, don't ever go.
