Tonart: Db major
Verse 1
F#
A week before Easter,
the morn bright and clear,
All the sun it shone brightly,
C#
F#
and keen blew the air.
I went to the forest
to gather fine flowers,
B
F#
But the forest would yield me no roses
G#m
F#
The roses are red
G#m
C#
and the leaves they are green,
F#
G#m
all the bushes and briars,
B
C#
a joy to be seen,
F#
C#
and the small birds are singing
F#
C#
F#
and and changing their nose down among
G#m
C#
F#
G#m
F#
the wild beast s of the forest.
The first time I saw my love,
C#
she was dressed all in white,
F#
G#m
made my eyes run and water,
C#
there dazzled my sight.
F#
For I thought to meself,
C#
F#
C#
well I might have been that one,
F#
G#m
but she's left me and gone
B
C#
F#
with another.
The last time I saw my love,
C#
F#
she did in the church stand
G#m
With a ring on her finger,
F#
C#
My love she has left me
F#
and shown me false play
C#
F#
G#m
for she's gone to be wed
B
C#
F#
to an other
the parson that married them aloud
C#
F#
G#m
he did cry all you that forbid it
C#
I'd have you stand nigh well
C#
F#
C#
Sure, I've a good reason why,
F#
G#m
B
C#
F#
But I had not the heart to forbid it.
Go dig me my grave,
C#
F#
Dig it long, wide and deep,
G#m
B
C#
I uncover it over with flowers so sweet
F#
C#
That I might lie down there
F#
C#
and take a long sleep
F#
G#m
And that's the best way
B
C#
F#
to forget her
