The Holy Ground Chords

(ver. 1)
Mary Black
[Verse]
    C       G      C         Am       G      C
Farewell my lovely Johnny, a thousand times adieu
               F   G        F    Em             C         Am       G
You are going away from the holy ground and the ones that love you true
         C        G         C               G        C  Em
You will sail the salt seas over and then return for sure__
   F    Dm       F        Am           C    G           F  C   Dm  G
To see again the ones you love and the holy ground once more__

[Verse]
       C      G        C            Am   G      C
You're on the salt sea sailing, and I am safe behind
             F G    F        Em       C       Am    G
Fond letters I will write to you, the secrets of my mind
        C       G     C                                  G  C  Em
And the secrets of my mind, my love, you're the one that I adore__
    F       Dm      F            Am      C    G           F  C   Dm  G
And still I live in hopes you'll see the holy ground once more__

[Verse]
  C       G       C                Am     G         C
I see the storm a-rising, and it's coming quick and soon
                   F   G    F   Em         C       Am       G
And the night's so dark and cloudy you can scarcely see the moon
        C       G     C                                  G  C  Em
And the secrets of my mind, my love, you're the one that I adore__
    F       Dm      F            Am      C    G           F  C   Dm  G
And still I live in hopes you'll see the holy ground once more__

[Verse]
    C       G          C         Am      G        C
But now the storms are over, and you are safe and well
             F G  F      Em        C             Am        G
We will go into a public house and we'll sit and drink our fill
        C            G       C                         G       C  Em
We will drink strong ale and porter and we'll make the rafters roar__
    F        Dm        F      Am            C     G        F  C   G
And when our money, it is all spent, you'll go to sea once more__

[Outro]
           C        G  C  Em
You're the one that I adore__
    F       Dm      F            Am      C    G           C
And still I live in hopes you'll see the holy ground once more
