[Verse 1]
Am G [tab] C Em And I'll lie here forever Am G If your hands were in mine C Em I'd be sure they would not sever Am G My apple tree my brightness C Em It's time we were together Am G For I smell of the earth C Em And am worn by the weather
[Verse 2]
Am G When my family think C Em That I'm safely in my bed Am G From night until morn C Em I am stretched at your head Am G Calling out to the earth C Em With tears hot and wild Am G For the loss of a girl C Em That I loved as a child
[Verse 3]
Am G Do you remember the night C Em Oh, the night when we were lost Am G In the shade of the blackthorn C Em And the torch of of the frost Am G Thanks be to Jesus C Em We did what was right Am G And your maidenhead still C Em Is your pillar of light
[Verse 4]
Am G The priests and the friars C Em They approach me in dread Am G Because I still love you C Em My love and you're dead Am G I still would be your shelter C Em Through rain and through storm Am G And with you in your cold grave C Em I cannot sleep warm
[Verse 5]
Am G So I'm all stretched on your grave C Em And I'll lie here forever Am G If your hands were in mine C Em I'd be sure they would not sever Am G My apple tree my brightness C Em It's time we were together Am G For I smell of the earth C Em And am worn by the weather
