Polly

Intro - acoustic guitar, harmonica

Verse 1

Remember that first sound, so clear and sweet,

The click-clack of your nails, upon the floor,

A little woof, to tell me what you'd seek,

When dinner time arrived, you'd ask for more.

A King Charles spirit, gentle and so kind,

With eyes that held a loving, trusting gleam,

The best companion, anyone could find,

Living out a quiet, happy dream.

Chorus

Oh, Polly, sweet Polly, my heart remembers you,

For fourteen wonderful years, you walked right by my side.

Through every changing season, faithful and so true,

My precious little friend, my comfort and my guide.

Verse 2

Whenever shadows fell, or tears began to start,

You seemed to sense the sorrow, deep inside.

You were always there for me, a comforting soft heart,

A quiet presence, in whom I could confide.

A gentle head upon my lap, a soulful gaze,

Bringing sunshine to my darkest, lonely days,

The sweetest little bub, through all your playful ways.

Chorus

Oh, Polly, sweet Polly, my heart remembers you,

For fourteen wonderful years, you walked right by my side.

Through every changing season, faithful and so true,

My precious little friend, my comfort and my guide.

Bridge

My final whispered words, I send them on the breeze,

Run free little bub, let your spirit soar.

Find your forever adventure, amongst the trees,

Beyond the distant shore, and evermore.

Harmonica Solo - acoustic guitar, mandolin

Final Chorus

Oh, Polly, sweet Polly, my heart remembers you,

For fourteen wonderful years, you walked right by my side.

Through every changing season, faithful and so true,

My precious little friend, my comfort and my guide.

Outro

Now you're laying in the beautiful morning sun,

Looking out over the horizon, wide and free.

Your journey here on earth, it may be done,

But your love lives on forever, deep inside of me.

Outro - acoustic guitar fade, harmonica
