Thin Lizzy - Sarah (1972)
Transcribed by Jon Malmin ([email protected])
Tuning: Standard E
This song is from "Shades of a Blue Orphanage", so it's not the same as the more
famous jazzpop-tune from "Black Rose". Fingerpick the song all the way through.
G Bm7 Am7 G
Captain's hair
Am7 Bm7 Am7 G
shone softly in the sun
C D
Rode on his best mare
Cmaj7/G
to Sarah
G Bm7 Am7 G
Schoolboy eyes
Am7 Bm7 Am7 G
would stare in innocent fun
C D
Never told no lies, he loved...
Cmaj7/G
...Sarah
Am7 G
Whispered by a bramble,
C D
carried by a brook
C D
to every fisher's hook,
Cmaj7/G
Sarah...

G Bm7 Am7 G Am7 Bm7 Am7 G
C D Cmaj7/G
G Bm7 Am7 G
Fragrant fields
Am7 Bm7 Am7 G
Playing croquet in the sun
C D
Nothing appeals
Cmaj7/G
like Sarah
Am7 G
Whispered by a bramble,
C D
carried by a brook
C D
to every fisher's hook,
Cmaj7/G
Sarah...
