Verse 1:
   G         D
My love said to me
   G            D
My mother won't mind
       G            D
And me father won't slight you
    G            D
For your lack of kind
         G            D
Then she stepped away from me
    G            D
And this she did say
G           D
"It will not be long, love
     G           D
Till our wedding day"


Verse 2:
    G            D
She stepped away from me
        G                 D
And she moved through the fair
    G        D
And fondly I watched her
     G             D
Move here and move there
        G            D
And she went her way homeward
     G        D
With one star awake
       G            D
As the swans in the evening
     G        D
Move over the lake

Verse 3:
    G           D
The people were saying
   G             D
No two e'er were wed
    G         D
But one has a sorrow
     G         D
That never was said
        G             D
And she smiled as she passed me
         G             D
With her goods and her gear
    G            D
And that was the last
       G         D
That I saw of my dear.


Verse 4:
  G               D
I dreamed it last night
        G              D
That my true love came in
   G          D
So softly she entered
    G            D
Her feet made no din
    G            D
She came close beside me
    G            D
And this she did say
G           D
"It will not be long, love
     G           D
Till our wedding day."
