MRS O'GRADY( B.Ulvaeus)

Angels singing, bells are ringing
Listen, what a sound, listen, what a sound
Churches calling, rain is falling
Covering the ground, covering the ground

Who is that lady? It's Mrs. O'Grady
Her story has never been told
Always in black, never talking
Just quietly walking the night
When it's chilly and cold
And she's twenty-one years old

Mrs. O'Grady the night is falling
Look at the stars in the sky
Listen the bells of St. John are calling
Time for a widow to cry

Goes to the churchyard
and cries 'cause it's so hard
To look at his grave once again
Yet every night you will see her
There's nothing to free her
From all the regret and the pain
And she knows it's all in vain


Mrs. O'Grady the night is falling
Look at the stars in the sky
Listen the bells of St. John are calling
Time for a widow to cry


Mrs. O'Grady the night is falling
Look at the stars in the sky
Listen the bells of St. John are calling
Time for a widow to cry

Mrs. O'Grady, your husband is dead

[Cercopithecus47]

Yep. Not that Björn was ripping McCartney off or anything, but it has a little that same 'feeling' (churchyard, death & those strings...)

[2Shaymcn]

They tried many different styles too Salo

This one shows Bjorn movigg away from folk to more pop styles

[2Shaymcn]

Keith Moon was one of the best!
