Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Goin' Back To Harlan [Intro] Em D G D Em [Verse 1]
                          G
There where no cuckoos, no sycamores

   C                Dm            Am
We played about the forest floor

               G              D
Underneath the silver maples

                    Em
The balsams and the sky
[Verse 2]
                        G
We popped the heads off dandelions

  C                 Dm              Am
Assuming roles from nursery rhymes

              G          D
Rested on the riverbank

                   Em   D
And grew up by and by

                   Em   G
And grew up by and by
[Chorus]
                         D
Frail my heart apart and play me a little shady grove

G
Ring the bells of Rhymney

          D                            G
Till they ring inside my head forever

                         D                         G
Bounce the bow, rock the gallows for the hangman's reel

    D                       G
And wake the devil from his dream
[Instrumental] D G D Em D G D [Bridge]
                  G        D
I'm going back to Harlan

                  G        D
I'm going back to Harlan

                  Em
I'm going back to Harlan
[Verse 3]
                G
And if you were Willie Moore

    C              Dm             Am
And I was Barb'rie Allen, or fair Ellen

               G
All sad at the cabin door

  D                         Em
A-weepin' and a-pining, for love

  D                         Em
A-weepin' and a-pining, for love
[Chorus]
                         D
Frail my heart apart and play me a little shady grove

G
Ring the bells of Rhymney

          D                            G
Till they ring inside my head forever

                         D                         G
Bounce the bow, rock the gallows for the hangman's reel

    D                       G
And wake the devil from his dream
[Instrumental] D G D Em D G D [Chorus]
                         D
Frail my heart apart and play me a little shady grove

G
Ring the bells of Rhymney

          D                            G
Till they ring inside my head forever

                         D                         G
Bounce the bow, rock the gallows for the hangman's reel

    D                       G       D
And wake the devil from his dream
[Outro] (fade to end)
                  G        D
I'm going back to Harlan

                  G             D
I'm going back to Harlan (going back)

                  G        D
I'm going back to Harlan

        G             D
Back to Harlan (going back)

                  G        D
I'm going back to Harlan

                  G        D
I'm going back to Harlan (going back)

        G        D
Back to Harlan

                  G             D
I'm going back to Harlan (going back)

        G        D
Back to Harlan
