♫ Verse 1:
     C              Am
Down in a willow garden
      C                   Am
Where me and my love did meet
      C                 Am
And there we sat a-courting
    C           G        C
My love dropped off to sleep

   Am              C        Am
I had a bottle of burgundy wine
          C                 Am
Which my true love did not know
      C                               Am
And there I poisoned that dear little girl
      C         G       C
Down under the banks below



♫ Verse 2:
    C                    Am
I stabbed her with my dagger
       C             Am
Which was a bloody knife
     C                 Am
I threw her into the river
       C      G       C
Which was a dreadful sight


    Am           C   Am
My father often told me
      C                  Am
That money would set me free
   C                                Am
If I would murder that dear little girl
       C        G       C
Whose name was Rose Connelly



♫ Verse 3:
     C                             Am
And now he sits by his own cottage door
   C                     Am
A-wiping his tear-dimmed eye
     C                            Am
And now he waits for his own dear son
  C        G       C
Upon the scaffold high


    Am             C       Am
My race is run beneath the sun
        C                      Am
Though hell is now waiting for me
    C                                Am
For I have murdered that dear little girl
       C        G       C
Whose name was Rose Connelly
