Intro D MajorD

Verse 1

D MajorD        A augmentedA       D MajorD
In Scarlet town  where I was born
      A augmentedA     D MajorD
There was a fair maid dwellin'

And every youth  cry well away
         A augmentedA  A7A7 D MajorD
And her name was Barbara Allen

Verse 2

Was in the merry  month of May
A augmentedA          A7A7  D MajorD
When green buds they were swelling

Sir William on his deathbed lay
        A augmentedA  A7A7 D MajorD
For the love of Barbara Allen

Verse 3

He sent a servant to the town
          A augmentedA    D MajorD
To the place where she was dwellin'

Cried master bids you to his side
        A augmentedA  A7A7 D MajorD
If your name be Barbara Allen

Verse 4

Well Slowly slowly she got up
  D7D7   A augmentedA    D MajorD
And slowly she went nigh him

And when she pulled the curtain back
        A augmentedA    A7A7  D MajorD   B7B7
Said Young man I think you're dying

Verse 5

      E MajorE     A augmentedA  E MajorE
Oh yes I'm sick  I'm very sick
      B7B7    E MajorE
And I will be   no better

Until I've had  the love of one
   E7E7   B7B7   E MajorE
The love of Brarbra Allen

Verse 6

Now Father Father go dig my grave
      B7B7    E MajorE
And make it deep and narrow

Sweet William died for me today
       B7B7   E MajorE     C#C#
I'll die for him   tomorrow

Verse 7

         F#F#     C#C#    F#F#
Well they buried her in the old courtyard
       C#C#       F#F#
Sir William's grave was nigh her

And from his heart there grew a rose
       C#C#         F#F#
And from her heart there grew a briar

Verse 8

             C#C#     F#F#
They grew and grew up the courtyard wall
        C#C#  C#7C#7 F#F#
Till they could grow no higher

They grew as one no more two hearts
    C#C#  C#7C#7   F#F#
Red red rose and the briar
      C#C#    F#F#   D#m7D#m7 C#C# F#F#
The red red rose and Barbra Allen
