Sarah Maria
(James Taylor) @ 1975
                              E
Well the moon is in the ocean 
                             A B7 E
and the stars are in the sky 
                       E
and all that I can see 
                         A B7 E
is my sweet Maria's eyes 
                      AF#mB7E
Sarah, Sarah Maria. [     ]
                             A F#m B7 E
Sarah Maria, ya, ya, ya, ya. 
                                    E
Well, you know 'bout the sugar cane 
                               A B7 E
that comes from way down south 
                            E
She got one end in her hand 
                             A B7 E
she got one end in her mouth 
                      AF#mB7E
Sarah, Sarah Maria. [     ]
                             A F#m B7 E
Sarah Maria, ya, ya, ya, ya. 
                        E
She took me out walkin' 
                           A B7 E
to the corner of the world 
                             E
Where everyone was a-talkin' 
                                A B7 E
about such a pretty little girl 
                      AF#mB7E
Sarah, Sarah Maria. [     ]
                             A F#m B7 E
Sarah Maria, ya, ya, ya, ya.
