Sabra Girl Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Nickel Creek
Verse 1]
Bm         D         A      Em
Lonely the life that once I led.
Bm          D                 A
Strange the paths on which we tred
D                 G          A
Led me to you, unlikely but true.
Em    A     Bm          A
Sabra girl, clouding my view.


[Verse 2]
Bm         D             A      Em
Rainy the day the first time we met.
Bm            D                   A
Deep was the talk and forever my debt.
   D             G             A
It didn't seem wrong to sing a sad song.
Em    A     Bm          A
Sabra girl, soon you'd be gone.


[Verse 3]
Bm         D             A      Em
Early the morning and sad the goodbye.
     Bm            D                    A
With a wave of your hand and a smile of your eye.
  D           G              A
So lately did meet, no sooner to part.
Em    A      Bm          A
Sabra girl, homeward must start.


[Verse 4]
Bm         D          A            Em
Rosy the lines that you wrote with your hand.
Bm        D                    A
Reading between them to misunderstand,
  D          G                    A
I made the mistake you said not to make.
Em A


[Verse 5]
Bm         D          A            Em
Reading your letters conviction did grow.
 Bm            D                    A
I thought it a chance and I knew I must go.
    D          G                A
It's hard to believe I could be so naive.
Em    A      Bm          A
Sabra girl, flattered but deceived.


[Verse 6]
Bm           D              A            Em
Now you just told me that a friendship is all.
   Bm          D                      A
I'm forced to repair the breach in my wall.
   D          G                 A
Illusions and dreams as usual it seems.
Em    A              Bm          A
Sabra girl, they have been my downfall.


[Verse 7]
Bm         D        A          Em
Lonely the life and dismal the view.
Bm            D                  A
Closed is the road that leads to you.
     D            G                   A
Since better can't be as friends we'll agree.
Em    A      Bm          A
Sabra girl, time will cure me.
