[A] [D]
[E] [A] Twenty years ago [E] last Christmas Came a tempter to [A] my wife
only [E] flower I cherished [B]
And I vowed I'd [E] have his life
one day [E] I met him In my eyes that villain [A] grinned
Then [Gbm] the curse of Cain [E] came o'er [B] me Was on that very day [E] I [Dbm] sinned
dream as the hammer strikes [D] the anvil [Bm] And [E] I dream as the sparks light on [A] the floor
