I'm the one who made the song title in the first message a clickable link, at the same time Rawhide was posting a message with a link. So, can somebody post the chords? I don't know how to figure out the chords or tune, Henrik. However, I do have the June Tabor recording. If you have RealPlayer, I can e-mail you a copy of the recording.

Surely there are some errors in the lyric given?! "And after they've USED her briefly and roughly ... "And after they'd done not one of them stayed ... " ... she cries for the lonely years that are waiting (?) Molly |

30 Sep 18 - 08:41 AM (#3953784) Subject: RE: Tune Req: She Moves among Men (Bill Caddick) From: Reinhard You're right on all accounts, Molly. This is what Bill Caddick sings: SHE MOVES AMONG MEN (Bill Caddick / Jigsaw Music) "Speak to me gently before we begin" She pleads but they laugh and pull her down And after they've used her briefly and roughly They leave her to face the dawn alone When they have gone she moves on her side And thinks of the men that with her have laid And none of them gave her a kind word of loving And after they'd done not one of them stayed Oh once she was wary and chose but a few To roll in her arms at the end of the day But the flower so proud begins now to wither And any may pluck at the petals so gay Alone in the night she muses a while And thinks of the days and how they will pass And she cries for the lonely years that are waiting Till death takes her hand and weds her at last Down in the bar room she moves among men Who watch her and touch her whenever they can And she notices hands and mouths as they drink And over their tankards the eyes of each man "Speak to me gently before we begin" ---------------------------------------- Sung by Bill Caddick on "The Home Service" (1984) |
