[D]
[Bb] [D]
[Dm]
I sat within the pearly green, sadly laid my true love
Sad hearts drove the two between, the old love [Dm] and the new love
The old for her, the new that made [Bb] me think of her
[A]
Well soft wind blew [C] down the [Dm] glen, and shook the golden boy
It was hard to woeful words to frame, to break the tides of oneness
But harder still to bear the shame, of [D] throwing chains [Dm] around us
And so I said, the mountain glen, I'll [Bb] seek at night
[A]
[Bb] And join the bold united [C] men, [Dm] while soft winds shake the bow
Sad I kissed away her tears, my [Am] fond arms [Dm] round her springing
Full moon's shot burst out our ears, from out [D] the wild [Dm] green
[A] The [Dm] bullet pierced my true love's eye, [Bb] and life's young string [A] so high
[Bb] And though my skin bled she [Dm] died, while [Am] soft winds [Dm] shook the bow
[Am] [Dm]
[Bb] [A] [A]
[Am] [Dm] [Am] [Dm]
Blood for blood, without remorse, I've [Am] taken her [Dm] down at last
I laid my true love's hateful corpse, where I pierced through my heart
Spent a grave I want to drear, [Bb] night and [A] day
With [Am] breaking heart, whene'er I hear, the wind that [Dm] shakes the body
With breaking heart, whene'er I hear, the wind that shakes the body
[Am] [Dm] Mommy, Mommy, Mommy
[Bb] [D]
