[Intro]
  G   C   G   D   G
[Verse 1]
   G                C           G                   D
My heart is sad and I am lonely for the only one I love
     G                C            G                D          G
When shall I see her, oh no never, 'til we meet in Heaven above
 
[Chorus 1]
 G          C                   G                        D
Oh bury me beneath the willow, under the weeping willow tree
 G                     C             G    D                      G
So she will know where I am sleeping and perhaps she'll weep for me

[Break] 

[Verse 2]
   G                  C              G                       D
She told me that she dearly loved me, how could I believe it untrue?
 G              C                 G                D         G
Until the angel softly whispered, "She will prove untrue to you"
 
[Chorus 2]
 
 G          C                   G                        D
Oh bury me beneath the willow, under the weeping willow tree
 G                     C             G    D                      G
So she will know where I am sleeping and perhaps she'll weep for me
 
[Break] 

[Verse 3]
 G                 C           G                           D
Tomorrow was our wedding day, oh God, oh God where can she be?
      G               C            G                      D
She's out a-courting with another and no longer cares for me
 
[Chorus 3]
 
 G          C                   G                        D
Oh bury me beneath the willow, under the weeping willow tree
 G                     C             G    D                      G
So she will know where I am sleeping and perhaps she'll weep for me
