Bury Me Beneath The Weeping Willow Tree

(início)

         A               D
    My heart is sad and I'm in sorrow,
            A          E
    for the only one I love,
           A             D
    when shall I see him, oh, no never,
            A           E      A
   'till I meet him in heaven above.
     A                 D
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow,
      A                         E
yes, under the weeping willow tree.
   A                D
So he may know where I am sleeping,
     A               E        A
and perhaps he will weep over me.
          A              D
    They told me that he did not love me,
             A                   E
    I could not believe it was true,
      A             D
    until an angel softly whispered,
              A       E       A
    "He has proven untrue to you."
     A                 D
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow,
      A                         E
yes, under the weeping willow tree.
   A                D
So he may know where I am sleeping,
     A               E        A
and perhaps he will weep over me.
       A              D
    Tomorrow was our wedding day,
             A                 E
    but, oh Lord, oh, where is he?
          A                 D
    He's gone to seek him another bride,
            A        E       A
    and he cares no more for me.
     A                 D
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow,
      A                         E
yes, under the weeping willow tree.
   A                D
So he may know where I am sleeping,
     A               E        A
and perhaps he will weep over me.
