Intro:  D A D 

          D               A
As I woke up one morning fair
                                D
To view the fields and take the air
                                     A
For to view the fields and meadows around
                                 D
I thought I heard some mournful sound
                                A
I thought I heard my true love say
                            D
"Oh, do turn and come this way"

                 A      A7     D
Yodel-ay-ee, oh-lay-ee, ay-oh-lay-ee

Instrumental:  D A D 

              D                     A
You love some other, you don't love me
                          D
You care not for my company
                                 A
You love some other, and I know why
                              D
Because he has more gold than I
                                    A
But gold will melt and silver will fly
                            D
My love for you will never die

                 A      A7     D
Yodel-ay-ee, oh-lay-ee, ay-oh-lay-ee

Instrumental:  D A D 

             D                      A
There is a flower, I've heard them say
                              D
That can be seen from day to day
                                 A
And if that flower I only could find
                              D
To cure this aching heart of mine

                 A      A7     D
Yodel-ay-ee, oh-lay-ee, ay-oh-lay-ee

Instrumental:  D A D 

             D                        A
So fare you well, my charming little love
                           D
Oh, meet me in that land above
                                A
And when we meet there in that land
                                 D
We'll take no more this parting hand

                 A      A7     D
Yodel-ay-ee, oh-lay-ee, ay-oh-lay-ee
