G5 C5
I MET HER AT THE MISSION
D5 G5
LIVIN' JUST THIS SIDE OF SIN
C5 G5
HER MOUTH WAS SOFT AND WHEN SHE SPOKE
D5
LORD, I FELL RIGHT IN
G5 C5
SHE HAD A BABY IN A BLANKET
D5 G5
A DOLLAR AND A HALF
C5 G5
SHE LOOKED A LITTLE LEERY
D5
SHE LET OUT A LITTLE LAUGH
G5 C5
I OPENED UP MY OVERCOAT
D5 G5
INVITED THEM INSIDE
C5 G5
TWO FRAGILE LITTLE FLOWERS
D5
WITH NOWHERE LEFT TO HIDE
C5 D5
SHE SAID HER OLD MAN LEFT HER

JUST BEFORE THE BABY CAME

SWING LOW, SWING LOW
C5 D5 G5 A5 G5
SWEET ANGEL FACE
C5 D5 E5 D5 C5
WHY WOULD SUCH A SIMPLE CHILD
A5 D5 G5 D5 C5
COME TO SUCH A PLACE
(Verse 3)
WE TALKED UNTIL THE WIND DIED DOWN
THE BABY WOKE AND STIRRED
SHE MADE A LITTLE HUSHING SOUND
SPOKE SOME MAGIC WORD
THE BABY YAWNED AND SMILED AT ME
AS SHE SAID WE CAN'T STAY
SHE THANKED ME FOR MY KINDNESS
TURNED AND WALKED AWAY
REPEAT CHORUS
(Verse 4)
I THINK ABOUT THEM ALL THE TIME
I HOPE THEY'VE FOUND A HOME
IT SEEMS THAT IT'S MY CALLING NOW
TO WALK THESE STREETS ALONE
SOMETIMES WHEN THE WIND IS RIGHT
I CAN SMELL HER SWEET PERFUME
AND THINK ABOUT THE WARM EMBRACE
THAT ENDED ALL TOO SOON
REPEAT CHORUS
