Come Away Melinda Harmonica Tab
Come Away Melinda Harmonica Tab
Originally written by Fred Hellerman and Fran Minkoff (The Weavers),
this song has been performed by Judy Collins (1964), Uriah Heep, Bobby
Gentry, Theodore Bikel, Harry Belafonte, UFO, Tim Rose, Barry St.
John, Kenny Rankin, Velvet Fogg, and The Big 3(with Mamma Cass).
There are variations of lyrics and melody. I tabbed the attached
Uriah Heep version.

Be-fore they had the warAn additional verse, (poorly placed, in my opinion) after the one
about "Mommie" is:Daddy, Daddy, come and see
Such things I've never seen
Happy faces all around
And all the ground is greenCome away, Melinda
Come in and close the door
That's just the way it used to be
Before they had the war
