SALLY SIMPSON
The Who


[Intro]       C          G      C            G

C		      G                            C                                  G
Outside the house Mr. Simpson announced that Sally couldn't go to the meeting.
C                        G                         C                      G
He went on cleaning his blue Rolls Royce, and she ran inside a-weeping.
C                       G                      C                         G
She got to her room and tears splashed the picture of her new messiah.
C                                 G              C                     G
She picked up a book of her father's life and threw it on the fire.


[Chorus]
        F                                                                                    G
She knew from the start, deep down in her heart. She and Tommy were worlds apart.
             F                                       C         D                G           C
But her mother said "Never mind. Your part is to be what you'll be."







C                              G                            C                 G
The theme of the sermon was "Come unto me and love will find a way."
C                        G                   C                G
So Sally decided to ignore her dad and sneak off anyway.
C                           G                     C                      G
She spent all afternoon getting ready and decided she'd try to touch him.
C                        G                  C                      G
Maybe he'd see that she was free and talk to her this Sunday.


[Chorus]
        F                                                                                    G
She knew from the start, deep down in her heart. She and Tommy were worlds apart.
             F                        C                        D                G
But her mother said "Never mind. Your part is to be what you'll be."


C                              G                         C                   G
She arrived at six and the place was swingin' to Gospel music by nine.
C                      G                              C                      G
Group after group appeared on the stage and Sally just sat there cryin'.
C                     G                            C                   G
She stood there looking pretty as a picture right in the very front row.
C                        G                       C                               G
Then a D.J wearin' a blazer with a badge ran on and said, "Here we go!"


[Bridge]
D7                G        D7               G
The crowd went crazy as Tommy hit the stage.
 D7                            G                  A                  D
Little Sally got lost as the police forced the crowd back in a rage.

C                  G                  C                     G
Soon the atmosphere was cooler and Tommy gave a lesson.
C                            G                       C                        G
Sally just had to let him know she loved him and leapt up on the rostrum.
C                                     G                      C                       G
She ran across the stage to the spotlight figure and brushed him on the face.
C                                G                  C                     G
Tommy whirled round as a uniformed man threw her off the stage.


[Chorus]
        F                                                                                    G
She knew from the start, deep down in her heart. She and Tommy were worlds apart.
             F                       C                         D                G
But her mother said "Never mind. Your part is to be what you'll be."

C                               G                       C                     G
Her cheek hit a chair and blood trickled down, mingling with her tears.
C                      G                     C                    G
Tommy carried on preaching and his voice filled Sally's ears.
C                       G                C                                G
She caught his eye. She had to try, but he couldn't see through the lights.
C                                  G                  C                               G
Her face was gashed and the ambulance man had to carry her out that night.


[Bridge]
 D7                G        D7               G
The crowd went crazy as Tommy left the stage.
D7                              G                          A                 D
Little Sally was lost for the price of a touch and a gash across her face. Oooh.

C                             G                   C                            G
Sixteen stitches put her right and her dad said, "Don't say I didn't warn you!"
C                          G                C           G                G(extra measure)
Sally got married to a rock musician she met in California.
C                  G                          C                    G
Tommy always talks about the day the disciples all went wild.
C                      G                       C                    G     G(extra measure)
Sally still carries a scar on her cheek to remind her of his smile.


[Chorus]
        F                                                                                    G
She knew from the start, deep down in her heart. She and Tommy were worlds apart.
             F                        C                        D                G/D
But her mother said "Never mind. Your part is to be what you'll be."
