Verse:
  A minorAm
One evening of late as I carelessly strayed
                E minorEm
I espied a fair maid in deep mourn
 A minorAm
I asked her the matter, she quickly made answer
        D MajorD   A minorAm
I am weary from lying alone, alone
   D MajorD         A minorAm
I am weary from lying alone

Verse:

My comely young damsel, come down here alongside me
                    E minorEm
And tell me of the years that have a-flown
  A minorAm
For seven long gone and eleven years around
        D MajorD   A minorAm
I am weary from lying alone, alone
   D MajorD        A minorAm
I am weary from lying alone

Verse:

If I got a comely young man who would take me without fortune
                 E minorEm
And make me a wife of his very own
    A minorAm
For the truth is, I'll say is, I'll die in despair
       D MajorD    A minorAm
If I lie any longer alone, alone
   D MajorD       A minorAm
If I lie any longer alone

Verse:

There's a neat, sweet li'l flower in this garden alongside me
                    E minorEm
Take it away, sure it is all but your own
    A minorAm
For the flower, it will fade and so also will the maid
           D MajorD   A minorAm
For she's weary from lying alone, alone
     D MajorD         A minorAm
For she's weary from lying alone
