[N] _ _ _ [Ab] As you lie [Ebm] before me [Gb] now like a shadow [Ebm] _

_ _ _ _ _ [Db] laying in to [Eb] me _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ _ _ this cup of wine [F] Oh
_ _ _ Salts and brines [Bbm] made me sleepy
_ [Ab] _ [Bbm]
the sorrow
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ Field of _ [F] tears
_ That will never yield a [Bbm] single penny _ _
But I [Eb] don't _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ _ Got _ nothing to [F] hold _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bbm] _ Until _ _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ Wish for [Gb]
gold so I could buy you a [Ebm] palace
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ by [Gb] the river _ [Db] sigh
