[F#] [D] Kiss me mother, kiss your darling Lay my head upon [A] your breast.
Throw [D] your loving arms around me I am weary, let me rest.
Seems [A] the light is [D] swiftly fading Brighter scenes they do [A] now show.
I [G] am standing by [D] the river Angels wait to take me home.
Kiss me mother, kiss your darling See the pain upon [A] my brow.
While [D] I'll soon be with the angels Fate has doomed my future to drown .
Through [A] the years you've [D] always loved me And my love you've tried [A] to save.
But [G] now I shall [D] slumber sweetly In a deep and lonely grave.
Kiss me mother, kiss your darling Lay my head upon [A] your breast.
Throw [D] your loving arms around me I am weary, let me rest.
I [A] am weary, let [D] me rest .
