There were two sisters of county Clair

One was dark and the other was fair

Oh, the wind and rain
G+G C majorC
He strung his fiddle bow with her long yellow hair, cried
DmDm FF G+G
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
G+G C majorC
And he made a fiddle, fiddle of her breast bone
FF C majorC G+G
Oh, the wind and rain
G+G C majorC
He made a fiddle, fiddle of her breast bone, cried

Oh, the wind and rain
G+G C majorC
The only tune that the fiddle would play was
DmDm FF G+G
Oh, the dreadful wind and rain
