[Verse]
  A                    D        A
A lady runs across the Old Mill Moor
  A                 E
a dreadful song was singing
       D                A       F#m
By the darkness of that now new moon
       A                 D       E
to her lover's guise was tightly clinging

      A                D        A
Oh go run, go run your troubles down
   A               E
go run down to the water
       D                 A     F#m
by the city fair and the ocean fierce
       A              D  E
a lady does not often falter

[Verse]
      A                   D    A
There runs she now by the ‘Sconset rose
      A              E
there runs she now a'bleeding
      D                    A       F#m
And a trail is kept by the way she moves
       A                D    E
to her lover's touch is dire needing

         A                   D       A
Although starched your apron may now be
      A                     E
it'll lose its shape in the water
       D                    A           F#m
but go swimmeth thee to the anchor most near
       A              D  E
a lady does not often falter

[Verse]
       A                       D        A
Oh the winds they blow and the tide she swells
       A             E
brings life into the beaches
        D                A         F#m
Oh that seam between the Earth and Tide
       A                  D        E
from land that sea is not quite as wide

       A                       D        A
Oh the winds they blow and the tide she swells
         A             E
breathes life into the tall pines
        D                   A        F#m
Without her breath lies the world so still
    A                   D    E
but with, that constant shoreline

  A                    D        A
A lady runs across the Old Mill Moor
    A                   E
and Heaven's bells were tolling
       D               A      F#m
By the sadness of that silent tune
        A                D      E
and the sea just kept on gently rolling
