[Eb] As I [Fm] walked out [Gb] one [Eb] morning May, The [Fm] birds did sing and the lambs [Bb] did play,
[Db]
[Eb] I met [Fm] an old man, I [Bb] met an old [Db] man by [Eb] the way.
[Gb] [Bb]
[Gb] [Bb]
[Ab] His hair [Fm] was white, [Gb] his [Eb] beard was grey, His [Fm] coat was of [Ab] some [Bb] myrtle shade,
I asked him what [Db] strange country [Eb]
man, Or what [F] strange place, [Fm] or what [Bb] strange race he [Db] did [Eb] belong.
My [Gb]
[Bb] [Gb]
[Bb] [Eb]
name [Fm] is Death, [Eb] cannot you see?
Lords, dukes [Fm] and ladies [Db]
[Cm] bow down [Bb] to me,
And you are one [Db] of those branches [Eb] three, And you [F] fair maid, [Fm] and you [Bb] fair maid, [Db] must come [Eb] with me.

[Ab] [Eb]
Fair [Fm] lady, lay [Bb] your [Eb] robes aside, No [Fm] longer glory [Ab] in [Bb] your pride,
And now sweet maid, [Db] make no [Eb] delay, Your time [Fm] is come, your time [Bb] is come, [Db] and you must [Eb] wait.
[Gb] [Bb]

And not [Fm] long after [Gb] this [Eb] fair maid died, Right on [Fm] my tomb the [Bb] lady cried,
Here lies a poor
[Db] distressed [Eb] maid, Whom [Cm] Death [Fm] now lately, whom Death [Bb] now lately [Db] hath [Eb] betrayed.
