Come all ye fair and tender ladies
Em                         Bm
Take warning how you court young men
D                                   Fm
They're like the stars on a summers mornin'
          Bm     G                A
First they appear and then they're gone

Em                      D
My father is a handsome devil
Em                                Bm
He wears a chain that's five miles long
D                          Fm
On every link a heart does dangle
          Bm   G               A
Of another maid he's loved and wronged

Verse 3:
Em                      D
If I had known before I courted
Em                         Bm
I never would have courted none
D                              Fm
no I'd of lock heart in box of golden
               Bm G              A
and fastened it up with a silver pin

Verse 4:
Em                   D
I wish were a little sparrow
Em                          Bm
And I had wings and I could fly
  D                          Fm
I'd fly away to my own false lover
             Bm      G       A
and when he's talking I'd be nigh

Verse 5:
Em                   D
But I am not a little sparrow
Em                        Bm
I have no wings nor can I fly
D                                  Fm
So I'll sit right here and weep in sorrow
          Bm   G            A
and try to pass my troubles by
