E A
My heart is sad and I'm in sorrow
E B
For the only one I love
E A
When shall I see him, oh, no, never
E B E
Till I meet him in heaven above
E A
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow
E B
Yes under the weeping willow tree
E A
So he may know where I am sleeping
E B E
And perhaps he will weep over me
E A
They told me that he did not love me
E B
I could not believe it was true
E A
Until an angel softly whispered
E B E
He has proven untrue to you
E A
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow
E B
Yes under the weeping willow tree
E A
So he may know where I am sleeping
E B E
And perhaps he will weep over me
E A
Tomorrow was our wedding day
E B
But, oh Lord, oh, where is he
E A
He's gone to seek him another bride
E B E
And he cares no more for me
E A
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow
E B
Yes under the weeping willow tree
E A
So he may know where I am sleeping
E B E
And perhaps he will weep over me
E A
Oh, bury me under the violets blue
E B
To prove my love to him
E A
Tell him that I would die to save him
E B E
For his love I never could win
E A
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow
E B
Yes under the weeping willow tree
E A
So he may know where I am sleeping
E B E
And perhaps he will weep over me
