Verse 1
Dm
The winters past and gone
and the leaves are growing green
C
And many are the things I've heard
Dm
One cold winter's night
G
Dm
when walking all alone I've been
F
G
A
Dm
I spied a bunny boy, young but growing
And as he walked along the way,
the wind all in his hair,
C
G
An old man followed after with his daughter,
young and fair.
Dm
And as she passed by me,
G
Dm
oh, she cried aloud in sad despair,
F
G
About that bonny boy,
A
Dm
young but growing.
Oh father, oh father,
D
Dm
you have done me much wrong.
G
when you know he is too young.
Dm
Oh, have patience, my daughter,
G
Dm
for you know it won't be very long.
F
G
You know the boy is young,
A
Dm
but he's growing.
Oh, we'll send your love
away to school,
all for a year or two.
C
And maybe in the meantime
G
he'll come to do for you
Dm
And we'll place on his finger
G
Dm
some ring of a golden hue
F
G
A

To let the ladies know that he's mar ried
She went up to the school,
and she looked all over the wall.

Saw four -and -twenty gentlemen

She called for her own love,
G

but they wouldn't let him leave at all.

So at the age of fourteen,

And at the age of fifteen,

At the age of sixteen,

the grass was growing green.
G
A

So now her love is dead,
and in his grave do lie.

The green grass do grow over him
Dm
And this poor girl can mourn him
G
Dm
until the very day she dies
F
G
A -watching o 'er his son
A
Dm
while he's growing
