Silver Dagger

(início)

F                 C                     F
Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother
                 C               Dm
She's sleeping here right by my side
            A#                   Gm
And in her right hand a silver dagger
              Dm     A#             C
She says that I     can't be your bride
               C                F
"All men are false", says my mother
                   C             Dm
"They'll tell you wicked, lovin' lies
               A#                    Gm
The very next evening, they'll court another
           Dm   A#             C
Leave you alone to pine and sigh"
          C              F
My daddy is a handsome devil
            C               Dm
He's got a chain five miles long
             A#                 Gm
And on every link a heart does dangle
           Dm   A#                C
Of another maid he's loved and wronged
           C              F
Go court another tender maiden
               C                Dm
And hope that she will be your wife
              A#                  Gm
For I've been warned, and I've decided
          Dm   A#         C
To sleep alone all of my life
