Under the willow no songs are heard

Am            D7           G        G7
Near where my darling lies dreaming;

C              G7            C
Nought but the voice of some far-off bird

Where life and its pleasures are beaming

Under the willow by night and day

Am        D7     G       G7
Sorrowing ever I ponder;

C             G7       C
Free from its shadowy, gloomy ray

Ah! never again can she wander
[Chorus]

C         G7       C
Under the willow I breathe a prayer

Am         D7        G        G7
Longing to linger forever

C          G7         C
Near to my angel with golden hair

     D7                 G7        C     C7
In a land where there’s sorrowing never
[Chorus]
F     G7        C

Fair, fair, and golden hair,

Under the willow she’s sleeping.
