E A E B7 E
E A
My love is dead and buried yonder
E B7
Beneath the weeping willow tree
E A
What wrecks my life and makes me wonder
E B7 E
Is because she died for me
E A
Then lay me down in death beside her
E B7
For she's all this life to me
E A
That I may join and e'er caress her
E B7 E
In a land beyond the sea
Instrumental: E A E B7
E A E B7 E
E A
Yes she died before I told her
E B7
That I loved her true and kind
E A
And that I did not mean to fool her
E B7 E
But she left me to repine
E A
Then lay me down in death beside her
E B7
For she's all this life to me
E A
That I may join and e'er caress her
E B7 E
In a land beyond the sea
Instrumental: E A E B7
E A E B7 E
E A
God shall I ever get forgiveness
E B7
For the deeds that I have done
E A
And meet up yonder her sweet charming
E B7 E
For I know she bids me come
E A
Then lay me down in death beside her
E B7
For she's all this life to me
E A
That I may join and e'er caress her
E B7 E
In a land beyond the sea
