My Baby Needs a Shepherd Emmylou Harris
[D]My baby needs a shepherd, she's [G]lost out on the [D]hill
Too late, I tried to call her when the [A]night was cold and still
And I [D]tell myself I'll find her but I [G]know I never [D]will
My baby needs a shepherd, she's [A]lost out on the [D]hill
[D]My baby needs an angel, she [G]never learned to [D]fly
She'll not reach sanctuary just by l[A]ooking to the sky
I [D]guess I could have carried her but I [G]didn't even [D]try
My baby needs an angel, she [A]never learned to [D]fly
[D]Oh, I ran so far through a broken land
I was [G]following that [D]drummer, beating [A]in a different band
[D]Somewhere on the highway, I [G]let go of her [D]hand
Now she's gone forever like her [A]footprints in the [D]sand
Chorus:
Toora [G]loora loora [D]lo, first the s[A]eed and then the [D]rose
Toora [G]loora loora [D]li,[G] my kingdom [D]fo-[A]or a lull[D]aby
My [D]baby needs a pilot, she [G]has no magic w[D]and
To help her part the troubled waters [A]of the Rubicon
But [D]in my soul, I know she'll have to [G]go this one al[D]one
After all that is the only [A]way she's ever [D]known
[D]But there is no lamp in all this dark
That could [G]chase away her [D]shadow from the [A]corners of my heart
I [D]pray she rides a dolphin but she's [G]swimmin' with the [D]shark
Out where none can save her, not even [A]Noah and his [D]ark
Chorus:
Toora [G]loora loora [D]lo, to the c[A]radle comes the [D]crow
Toora [G]loora loora [D]li,[G] my kingdom [D]fo-[A]or a lull[D]aby
My [D]baby needs a mother to [G]love her till the [D]end
Up every rugged mountain and down e[A]very road that bends
Some[D]times, I hear her cryin' but I [G]guess it's just the [D]wind
My baby needs a mother to [A]love her till the [D]end
