A bold young farmer courted me 
Bb                    Ab   Db Fm F 
He stole my heart and my liberty 
Bbm                        Bb    Eb 
He stole my heart without free goodwill 
     Ab       Fm                   Bb 
And I must confess that I love him still 


Bbm 
I wish, I wish but it‘s all in vain 
Bb               Ab  Db Fm F 
I wish I was a maid again 
Bbm                 Bb     Eb 
But a maid again I never can be 
       Ab            Fm                 Bb 
Since such a young fellow lies still by me 


Bbm 
There sits a bird in yonder tree 
Bb                      Ab   Db Fm F 
Some say he‘s blind and cannot see 
Bbm                    Bb   Eb 
And I wish it was the same with me 
      Ab          Fm            Bb 
Before I took up with your company 


Bbm 
I wish my babe so tiny was born 
Bb                 Ab   Db  Fm F 
And smiling on his father’ s knee 
Bbm                 Bb    Eb 
And I poor girl was dead and gone 
         Ab           Fm         Bb 
With the green grass growing all over me 


Bbm 
Go dig my grave, dig long and deep 
Bb                       Ab    Db  Fm F 
Place a marble stone at my head and feet 
Bbm              Bb          Eb 
And on my heart put a snow white dove 
      Ab            Fm          Bb 
To let the world know that I died for love
