G+G C majorC G+G E minorEm
Down in the willow garden,
G+G E minorEm
where me and my love did meet
G+G C majorC G+G E minorEm
As we sat a-courtin',
G+G D MajorD G+G
my love fell off to sleep
E minorEm D MajorD G+G E minorEm
I had a bottle of burgundy wine,
G+G E minorEm
my love she did not know
G+G C majorC G+G E minorEm
So I poisoned that dear little girl,
G+G D MajorD G+G
along the banks below
G+G C majorC G+G E minorEm
I drew a sabre through her,
G+G E minorEm
it was a bloody knife
G+G C majorC G+G E minorEm
I threw her in the river,
G+G D MajorD G+G
which was a dreadful sight
E minorEm D MajorD G+G E minorEm
My father often told me,
G+G E minorEm
that money would set me free
C majorC C majorC G+G E minorEm
If I would murder that dear little girl,
G+G D MajorD G+G
whose name was Rose Connolly
E minorEm C majorC G+G E minorEm
My father sits at his cabin door,
G+G E minorEm
wiping his tear-dimmed eyes
G+G C majorC G+G E minorEm
For his only son soon shall walk,
G+G D MajorD G+G
to yonder scaffold high
E minorEm D MajorD G+G E minorEm
My race is run, beneath the sun,
G+G E minorEm
the scaffold now waits for me
G+G C majorC G+G E minorEm
For I did murder that dear little girl,
G+G D MajorD G+G
whose name was Rose Connelly
THE END!
