I once had a love and oh I loved her very dearly
    F                    C    D                    G
She told me she loved me so I thought she spoke sincerely
        F          C                  G
But one day away I found that she had flown
    C                F              C   G C
And off to find that love of mine I set a lone

For if I I I don't find my love I know

I shall die die die 'cause I love her so

Verse 2
C                            F                 C
I journeyed across the sea I sought her with devotion
   F                      C       D                 G
Oh where she could really be I've not the slightest notion
       F                   C              G
But so bright the light of love within me shone
  C                   F             C    G  C
I knew full well what e'er befell I must go on

I shall die die die 'cause I love her so

Verse 3
C                              F                   C
Due east over desert sands due east where grass is greener
  F                C         D             G
I asked in a dozen lands but none had ever seen her
       F               C                G
It was clear I fear my quest was all in vain
C             F                C    G C
So I departed sad at heart for home a gain

Chorus
C                              F   C   G
Looking high high high looking low low low

Verse 4
C#                               F#                 C#
But when I arrived all brown and tanned by wind and weather
    F#                         C#            D#         G#
You sure could have knocked me down with the proverbial feather
          F#                C#             G#
She stood there so fair and sweetly she confessed
     C#         F#             C#         G#       C#
That she'd been wrong and all along she'd loved me best

Chorus
C#                                   F#  C#  G#
I'd looked high high high I'd looked low low low
          C#                  G#
Wondering why why why did she go go go
         C#         F#
Now that I I I have found my love I know
       C#                      G#  C#
Till I die die die I will love her so
