Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother
      C       G           C    G
She's sleeping here right by my side
   D        Em      D      G
In her right hand a silver dagger
    D        G        C      G
She says that I can't be your bride

All men are fools, so says my mother
                 D              Em
They'll tell you again, love and lies
    G           C       G/B       Am
And then they'll go and court some other
          C        G/B D
Leave you alone to pine inside

My daddy is a handsome devil
     C    G      C         G
He's got a chain five miles long
   D    Em      D         G
On every link a heart does dangle
    D     C          D        G
Of another maid he's loved and wronged

Go court another tender maiden

In hopes that she might be your wife
    D        Em          D   G
For I've been warned, so I decided
     D      C        D    G
I'll sleep alone all of my life
