[Ebm]
I shall tell of a hunter [Abm] whose life was undone
[Ebm] By the cruel hand of evil at the [Abm] setting [Bb] of the sun
[Ebm] His arrow was loosed [Abm] and it flew through the dark
[Ebm] Love was slain [Abm] as the [Bb] shaft [Ebm] found its mark
[Gb] She had her apron wrapped about her and he took her [Bb] for a swan
[Ebm] And it so, [Gb] and [Abm] alas, it was [Bb] she, [Ebm] Polly Vaughn
He ran up beside her [Abm] and found it was she
[Ebm] He turned away his head where he [Abm] could not [C] bear [Bb] to see
[Ebm] He lifted her up [Abm] and found she was [Ebm] dead
A fountain of tears for [Abm] his true [Bb] love [Ebm] he shed
She [Gb] had her apron wrapped about her and he took her [Bb] for a swan
[Eb] And it so, [Gb] and alas, [Abm] it was [Bb] she, [Ebm] Polly Vaughn
He bore her away [Abm] to his home by the sea
[Ebm] Grandfather of father, [Abm] I murdered [Bb] poor Polly
[Ebm] I've killed [Gb] my fair love [Abm] in the flower of her life
[Ebm] I always intended [Abm] that she [Bb] be [Ebm] my wife
But [Gb] she had her apron wrapped about her and I took her [Bb] for a swan
[Eb] And it so, [Ebm] and alas, [Abm] it was [Bb] she, [Ebm] Polly Vaughn

[Ab] [Ebm] He roamed near the place [Abm] where his true love was slain
[Ebm] He wept bitter tears [B] but his [Abm] cries were [Bb] all in vain
[Ebm] As he looked on the lake [Abm] a swan glided by
[Ebm] And the sun slowly sank [Abm] in the grey [Bb] of [Ebm] the sky
She [Eb] [Gb] had her apron wrapped about her and he took her [Bb] for a swan
[Ebm] And it so, [Gb] and alas, [Abm] it was [Bb] she, [Ebm] Polly Vaughn
