Time measure: 3/4 [Intro] | C | G7 | C | C | [Verse 1]
  C         G7     C
Beneath the moon tonight I kneel

      F               C
Close to my darling's side

    F                    C
Her eyes in death are forever closed

             G7     C
My sweet and future bride
[Verse 2]
              G7          C
Sweet wedding bells would softly ring

    F              C
For us in June she said

    F                 C
But angels thought it best that we part

                   G7    C
And they told us today instead
[Chorus]
 C          G7     C
Beside some lonely river bank

          F               C
Where the weeping willows grow

     F              C
I'll ease my achin' heart tonight

               G           C
Down where the dark waters flow
[Interlude] | C | G7 | C | C | | F | F | C | C | | F | F | C | C | | C | G7 | C | C | [Verse 3]
  C       G7     C
I planted on her new made grave

  F                C
A tender rose with care

   F                        C
To bloom through all of the lonely years

             G7    C
While she is lyin' there
[Verse 4]
     C         G7     C
I'll place one tender kiss of love

  F               C
Upon that budding rose

    F               C
And bid my world of cares goodbye

               G7          C
Down where the dark waters flow
[Chorus]
 C          G7     C
Beside some lonely river bank

          F               C
Where the weeping willows grow

     F              C
I'll ease my achin' heart tonight

               G           C
Down where the dark waters flow
