VERSE 1 (AK):
  D MajorD         G+G
Tonight I'm sad my heart is lonely

 D MajorD          A augmentedA
For the only one I love

   D MajorD         G+G
When will I see him, oh no never

D MajorD  /  A augmentedA   /   D MajorD
Till we meet in heaven above

CHORUS (Together):
  D MajorD      G+G
So bury me beneath the willow

D MajorD            A augmentedA / A7A7 /
Under the weeping willow tree
  D MajorD           G+G
So she will know where I am sleeping

D MajorD /  A augmentedA     /     D MajorD
And perhaps sheâ??ll weep for me

   D MajorD         G+G
She told me that she  dearly loved me

 D MajorD              A augmentedA
 How could I believe it untrue

  D MajorD        G+G
Until the angels  softly whispered

D MajorD   /  A augmentedA   /   D MajorD
 She will prove untrue to you


CHORUS (Together):
  D MajorD      G+G
So bury me beneath the willow

D MajorD            A augmentedA / A7A7 /
Under the weeping willow tree

So she will know where I am sleeping

And perhaps sheâ??ll weep for me

Tomorrow was our wedding day

  D MajorD              A augmentedA
Oh god, oh god, where can he be

   D MajorD        G+G
Heâ???s out a-courting with another

D MajorD /  A augmentedA    /   D MajorD
And no longer cares for me

And perhaps sheâ??ll weep for me
