My heart is sad and I’m lonely
C G7
For the only one I love
C F
When will I see her oh no never
C G7 C
Till we meet in heaven above
F
So bury me beneath the willow
C G7
Under the weeping willow tree
C F
So she will know where I am sleeping
C G7 C
And perhaps she’ll weep for me
She told me that she dearly loved me
How could I believe it untrue
Until the angels softly whispered
She will prove untrue to you
Tomorrow was our wedding day
Oh God oh God where can he be
She’s out a-courting with another
And no longer cares for me
