I [Bb] came to a [F] lonely hill, _
[Eb] and some planter [Gm] there to fly. _
_ _ [Bb] The planter there from that springtime, [Eb] was pleasing to [Gm] my mind.
_ [Eb] Her rosy cheeks, her [Fm] _ [Gm] lips like arrows pierced my breast,
_ And she wore [Bb] what no _ [F] laura, _ [Eb] a veil [Gm] of rose. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I caught her lovely [Bb] _ _ _
[F] laura, _ [Eb] _ _ and she wore [Gm] that to fly.
_ [Bb] She turned into a man, _ _ [Eb] before she distressed [Gm] my mind.
_ [Eb] She wore me a fine, [Bb] _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ but I loved my [Bb] faithless _ _ [F] laura.
[Bb] A [Eb] veil of [Gm] rose, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
weighed down in the [Bb] _ undershade [F] _
of [Bb] [Eb] a path alone.
[Gm] _
_ _ _ [Bb] A lesson with my faith, _ _ [Eb] seemed so strange [Gm] to me.
_ [Eb] And the answer that she [C] gave to him, [Gm] _ escorted me up the stairs.
_ I betrayed [Bb] that _ _ [F] laura, [Eb] and a veil [Gm] of rose. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I stepped up to [Bb] my _ [F] rival, _ [Bb] _ [Eb] my anger [Gm] in mind.
_ _ [Bb] That season by the car, [Eb] I saw her leaving [Gm] him.
I was so _ _ [Eb] mad, so desperate, _ _ [F] _ _ I [Gm] pierced him in the breast _ with my [Bb] lovely _ [Fm] _ glove. _
[Eb] A veil [Gm] of rose, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
and I had put down [Bb] my _ [F]
drum.
I [Eb] _ had made [Gm]
love, _ _ [Bb] they placed me in the criminal, _ [Eb] and then convinced [Gm] on me.
[Eb] Oh no, she tore my heart, [F] _ _ _ [Gm] and deprived me of my _ _ love, _ my [Bb] faithless _ [F] _ laura.
