[Em]
I put my back against an oak, thinking it was some trusty tree,
But first it bent and then it broke, and so did my false love to me.
[C] I put my hand into a bush, thinking some [E] sweetest flower to find,
I pricked my finger to the bone, leaving the sweetest [C] flower behind.
Whole meeting is a pleasure, [B] and parting [E] is a grief,
But an unconstant lover is worse than [C] any thief.
A thief will all but rob you, [Am] [Em] and take all that you have saved,
But an unconstant lover will bring you to the grave.
The grave, [C] it will decay you, and turn you into dust.
There's not one in a thousand that you can trust.
They'll kiss you, and they'll [C] court you, and tell to you more lies.
As the hairs upon [Em] your head, love, or the stars in the skies,
Come all you young lovers, a warning take by me.
Don't place your affection [Em] on a green willow tree,
For the leaves they will wither, [C] the branches will decay,
[Em]
And all your poor love will soon fall away.
For the leaves will wither, the branches [C] will decay,
And all your poor love will soon fall away.
For the leaves they will wither, the branches will decay,
And all your poor love will soon fall away.
For the leaves will wither, and the branches will decay,
[D]
[C] And all your poor [E] love will [D] soon fall away.
