Sadie Chords by Spinners

[A] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ [C#] _ _
[F#m] _ _ _ [D] _ [A] _ In a [D] world like today, [A] it's a rare occasion [D] to be able to see [A] young mothers like the ones
that were around [C#] when I grew [F#m] up, [D] but they live on in memory [A] to quite a few of us. _
[D] And this song [E] is dedicated to [D] those who cherish [A] that memory. _
_ _ _ _ Early [E] one [F#m] Sunday morning, _ _ [A] breakfast [E] was on [F#m] the table.
_ _ [A] There was no [B] time to eat, she said [Bm] to me.
Boy, hurry [D] to [E] Sunday school, _ [A] filled [E] with a lot [F#m] of glory.
_ _ [A] We [E] learned the [F#m] whole story.
_ _ _ _ [A] She'll always [C#m] [B] have her dreams, despite [Bm] the things [D] this troubled [E] world can bring.
[F#m] Oh, say, _ _ [E] don't you [Em] know we love [A] you [F#m] sweet Sadie?
[D] _ [E] Place no [Em] one above [F#m] you sweet [D] Sadie.
Well, [C#m] well, well, _ [F#m] sometimes [Bm] it seems so [A] funny.
No [D] money will turn your [E] life [E] around.
[A] _
[E] Sweeter than [F#m] cotton candy, _ _ [A]
stronger [E] than [F#m] Papa's old brandy. _ _
[D] [C#m] Always that [B] needed smile.
Once [Bm] in a while, she [D] would break [E] down and cry. _
[A] [E] Sometimes she'd be [F#m] so happy _ [A] being [E] with us [F#m] and Daddy. _ _
[A] Standing [E] the worst [B] of times, breaking [Bm] the binds with just [F#m] a [E] simple song. _
[F#m] _ Oh, Sadie, [C#m] baby, don't you [G] know we love you [F#m] sweet Sadie?
Well, [C#m] well, well, place no one [G] above you sweet [F#m] Sadie.
_ [C#m] Living in the [F#m] _
past, [Bm] oh, she never [A] said it.
[D] In love, [E] she's [F#m] always [E] winning, yeah.
[F#m] _ My, [E] my, my, my, my, _ [G]
[A] I love [F#m] you, Mama.
_ [E] _ _ [Em] I just can't forget [F#m] how you gave me [C#m] love.
If [F#m] _ _
[Bm] there's a heaven up [A] above, I know [D] she's teaching [E] angels [F#m] how to [E] love.
[F#m] _ _ [E] It's a mean world [G] without [A] you.
[F#m] _ All the love you show, [E] oh, [G] has it [A] really worried [F#m] her down to love me?
Well, [C#m] well, living in [F#m] the past, [Bm] ain't it funny that in [A] the end it's not [D] money.
It's just [F#m] the love [E] you gave us [F#m] all.
_ Well, [C#m] well, [G] you'll be [C#] good to [F#m] me so _ soon.
[E] Place no [G] one [Em] above you [F#m] sweet Sadie.
[E] Living in [F#m] the past, [Bm] oh, the people say they [A] love my songs.
[D] Oh, Lord, I'm [E] all alone, [E] I miss [F#m] her so.
Sadie, well, _ [C#m] don't you [G] know we [C#] love you sweet Sadie?
[F#m] _ _ _ [E] Place no [G] one above [C#] you [F#m] sweet _ Sadie.
Let me just [C#m] try, just try [F#m] one more time and say [Bm] I, and though we [A] were very poor,
[D] she tried to love us [E] that much [E] more.
[F#m] Oh, Sadie, [E] have you ever, _ [G]
have you [F#m] ever met [E] Sadie?
Place no [G] one above you [F#m] sweet Sadie.
The premier [C#m] of ladies.
Living in [F#m] the past, [Bm] oh, sometimes [A] I feel so [D] alone.
But I [E] know that I [E] gotta go [F#m] on.
Sadie, it's what she wanted [C#m] from me.
Don't you [G] know we [A] love you [F#m] sweet Sadie?
I know it's gonna be hard [D] sometimes.
[E] Place no [G] one [Em] above you [F#m] sweet Sadie. Oh, Sadie.
_ [C#m] Living in [F#m] the past.
Lord, I [Bm] know my mama's no [A] longer here.
[D] Her memory still [E] hangs in the [E] air.
[F#m] Oh, just let me run, let me run, let me [E] go on.
You [G] know we love [C#] you [F#m] sweet Sadie.
Why you wanna make me [E] feel so [Em] down?
Place no one above you [F#m] sweet Sadie.
This feeling won't let me be.
[C#m] Living in [F#m] the past.
_ [Bm] Keep [A] on moving.
