From the album Joan Baez in concert

[Intro]

A

[Verse 1]
   A             E7        A                 E7      A
He came from his palace grand, he came to my cottage door
               E7          A                      E7  A
His words were few but his looks, Will linger for evermore
    D                    A         D                       A
The look in his sad dark eyes more tender than words could be
          E7         A                  E7       A
But I was nothing to him and he was the world to me.

[Verse 2]
      A      E7         A                          E7        A
There in her garden she stands all dressed in fine satin and lace
             E7          A                        E7       A
Lady Mary so cold and so strange who finds in his heart no place.
   D                   A             D                   A
He knew I would be his bride, with a kiss for a lifetime fee
          E7         A                  E7       A
But I was nothing to him and he was the world to me.



[Verse 3]
A          E7       A                      E7     A
Now in his palace grand on a flower strewn bed he lies
              E7       A                      E7        A
His beautiful lids are closed on his sad dark beautiful eyes
    D                      A         D                  A
And among the mourners who mourn why should I a mourner be
          E7         A                  E7       A  D  A
For I was nothing to him and he was the world to me.
