The Ballad Of Sally Rose

D

                          G          D
Her mama picked him up in south Minnesota
                                    A              D
He promised her the world, but they never got that far
                              G    D
For he was last seen in that '59 Desoto
                                 A          D
When Sally was born in the black hills of Dakota

                                   G           D
She was washed in the blood of the dying Sioux nation
                           A         D
Raised with a proud, but a wandering heart
                                        G        D
And she knew that her roots were in the old reservation
                                  A        D
She had stars in her eyes and greater expectations

   G            D           A            D
No rings on her fingers, no bells on her toes
     G           D              E           A
With bugs on her headlights and runs in her hose
            G             A         D           G
Through the valley of the shadow of Roosevelt's nose
   D                   A        D         A  D
Adios South Dakota, adios Sally Rose

              A                               D
They've got a national monument carved out of stone
       A                            D
On the side of a mountain where her forefathers roamed
                                  G         D
Playing cowboys and Indians right under the nose
                              A           D
Of Theodore Roosevelt and the sweet Sally Rose

                              G              D
So she left Rapid City in the blue moonlight hour
                                   A           D
One her eye on the highway and her foot on the floor
                             G             D
And turning the dial she was pulled by the power
                               A            D
Of the word coming out of that broadcasting tower

   G            D           A            D
No rings on her fingers, no bells on her toes
     G           D              E           A
With bugs on her headlights and runs in her hose
            G             A         D           G
Through the valley of the shadow of Roosevelt's nose
   D                   A        D
Adios South Dakota, adios Sally Rose

   G            D           A            D
No rings on her fingers, no bells on her toes
     G           D              E           A
With bugs on her headlights and runs in her hose
            G             A         D           G
Through the valley of the shadow of Roosevelt's nose
   D                   A        D          A  D
Adios South Dakota, adios Sally Rose
