[Ab] [Eb] [Ab] [Gm] [Bb] [Eb]
It was [Bb] on one cold [Cm] winter's night, [Eb] As the winds blew across the [Bb] wild moor,
[Eb] As poor Mary [Ab] came [Fm] [Eb] wandering home [Ab] with her child, [Eb] She came [Bb] to her long [Eb] and far-off store,
Father, dear [Bb] father, [Eb] she cried, Come down [F] here and open [Fm] the door,
[Cm] For the child [Ab] in my arms [Eb] he will [Ab] perish and die, [Eb] From the winds that blow [Bb] across [Eb] the wild moor,
But her [Bb] father's death to [Eb] her cries, Not a sound of her voice could [Bb] he hear,
[Fm] Though [Eb] the waters [Ab] started to howl and [Eb] the [Ab] parries went stone,
[Eb] As the winds [Bb] blew across [Eb] the wild moor, Why [D] did I leave [Eb] to stare sparse,
When her eyes were so [Bb] happy and free?
[Eb] Now to roam [Ab] through this land [Eb] without friends [Ab] or a home, And [Eb] no one to [D] take [Eb] pity on me,
Oh, [Bb] how the old [Eb] man must have felt, As he came to the door [Bb] the next morning,
[Fm] When [Eb] he saw [Ab] how that night [Eb] she had [Ab] perished and [Eb] died, From the winds that [Bb] blow [Eb] across the wild moor,
With anger [Bb] he tore [Eb] his grey hair, As the tears down his [Bb] cheeks they did pour,
[Eb] When he saw [Ab] how that night [Eb] she had [Ab] perished and died, [Eb] From the winds that [Bb] blow [Eb] across the wild moor,
[F]
