Chords

From the album 'Last Sessions Their Complete Victor Recordings 1934-1941' To simplify the chords transpose up two steps and play without a capo, with chords G, C and D7. [Intro] F [Verse 1]
           F                                     Bb               F
You tied a love knot in my heart, dear, when you said you'd be my bride,

        F                     G                C7
oh, how well I remember as we strolled side by side.

            F                            Bb              F
Leaves were falling all around us, roses withered on the ground,

           F                                     C7         F
you tied a love knot in my heart, dear, that can never be unwound.
[Instrumental] F Bb F F C F [Verse 2]
         F                                  Bb                 F
The only thing that I have left now is this little string I've found,

       F                                G                 C7
with a little love knot in it, that she held tight in her hand.

     F                                 Bb               F
As I stood there by your bedside, as I looked into your eyes,

            F                                    C7         F
you tied a love knot in my heart, dear, that can never be untied.
[Instrumental] F Bb F F C F [Verse 3]
           F                                     Bb                   F
There's a heart tonight that's lonely, there's a heart tonight that's sad

    F                                  G          C7
For God has took you from me, the best pal I ever had.

              F                             Bb               F
She's gone to sing up in heaven, God needed her there by His side,

           F                                     C7          F
You tied a love knot in my heart, dear, that can never be untied.
