Song from the movie "The Ballad of Buster Scruggs"

Verse 1:
    D          G         Bm             A     
As I was a walking down by the loch

    G          D             Bm            A     
As I was a walking one morning of late

   D              G          Bm           A         
Who should I spy but my own dear comrade?

   D               G            Bm             D     
Wrapped up in flannel, so hard is his fate


Verse 2:
    D               G            Bm           A         
I boldly stepped up to and kindly did ask him

   G             D               Bm            A      
Why are you wrapped up in flannel so white?

D        G              Bm         A         
My body is injured and sadly disordered

      D            G          Bm                D      
All by a young woman, my own heart's delight


Bridge:
     D             G          A           A            
Oh had she but told me when she disordered me

  D             Bm                      A     A   
Had she but told me of it at the time  

    D                G          Bm                A        
I might have got salts or pills of white mercury

      D             G             Bm               D     
But now I'm cut down in the height of my prime


Verse 3:
      D            G            Bm          A       
Get six pretty maidens to carry my coffin

      G            D            Bm            A     
And six pretty maidens to bear up my pall

      D        G               Bm            A      
And give to each of them bunches of roses

        D              G             Bm       A    D     
That they may not smell me as they go a-long
