I am a man of [D] tonsome sorrows, [E] I've seen trouble [A] all my days.

As for you, well, my [D] old true lover, I never [E] expect to see [A] you again.

You can bury me in some [D] deep valley, pardon [E] me, yes, for I'm a [A] manor.
Then you may learn to [D] love another, while [E] I'm sleeping in [A] my bed.
