Mary Of The Wild Moor
Recorded by Mac Wiseman
Written by David Turner
[3/4 time]

C G7 C
Was on a cold winter's night
D7 G7
And the wind blew across the wild moor
C G7 C F
As poor Mary came wandering home with her child
C G7 C
Till she came to her own father's door

G7 C
Oh father dear father she cried
D7 G7
Come down and open the door
C G7 C F
Or this child in my arms will perish and die
C G7 C
From the winds that blow across the wild moor

G7 C
Her father was deaf to her cry
D7 G7
Not a sound of her voice did he hear
C G7 C F
For the watch dogs did howl and the village bells tolled
C G7 C
And the winds blew across the wild moor

G7 C
Oh how the old man must have felt
D7 G7
When he came to the door the next morn'
C G7 C F
And found Mary dead but the child still alive
C G7 C
Closely clasped in it's dead mother's arms

G7 C
In anguish he tore his gray hair
D7 G7
While the tears down his cheeks they did pour
C G7 C F
Then he saw that Mary died the gay village bride
C G7 C
From the winds that blow across the wild moor

G7 C
But the villagers point out the spot
D7 G7
Where the willows weep over the door
C G7 C F
Saying there Mary died once the gay village bride
C G7 C
From the winds that blow across the wild moor
