   A                D
My heart is sad and I am in sorrow

A                  E   (E7)
For the only one I love

     A                D
When shall I see him, oh, no never

A       E               A
till we meet in heaven above

   A         D
Oh bury me beneath the willow

A                        E   (E7)
Under the weeping willow tree

   A                 D
So he may know where I am sleeping

A      E                   A
And perhaps he'll weep for me
A D A E A
     A               D
They told me that he did not love me

A                          E   (E7)
I could not believe it was true

  A            D
Until an angel softly whispered

A      E                A
He has proven untrue to you

   A         D
Oh bury me beneath the willow

A                        E   (E7)
Under the weeping willow tree

   A                 D
So he may know where I am sleeping

A      E                   A
And perhaps he'll weep for me
A D A E A D A E A
A                D
Tomorrow was our wedding day

    A                      E  (E7)
But Lord, oh Lord where is he?

     A                 D
He's gone to seek him another bride

A      E                 A
And he cares no more for me

   A         D
Oh bury me beneath the willow

A                        E   (E7)
Under the weeping willow tree

   A                 D
So he may know where I am sleeping

A      E                   A
And perhaps he'll weep for me

A      E                   A
And perhaps he'll weep for me
