Verse 1:
D MajorD              G/BG/B      D MajorD
On the banks of trilliums my lovin’ I did lay
   G/BG/B     D MajorD      E minorEm        G+G
and I took out my guitar and a tune for her I’d play
    D MajorD          G/BG/B        D MajorD
In the middle of a tune, I stopped and I did say,
  G+G     E minorEm    D MajorD
Oh Misha oh Misha would you leave me?

Verse 2:
D MajorD         G/BG/B      D MajorD
Oh when you were a girl, did you hear your father say
   G/BG/B        D MajorD     E minorEm        G+G
that he’d rather see you dead than buried in the clay
D MajorD          G/BG/B        D MajorD
Sooner than be married to any runaway
    G+G    E minorEm      D MajorD
by the lovely sweet banks of trillium

Verse 3:
D MajorD         G/BG/B      D MajorD
Oh Misha I’m no runaway, and soon I’ll let them know
   G/BG/B        D MajorD     E minorEm        G+G
I can take the good hard work, and never will I go
D MajorD          G/BG/B        D MajorD
For the music doesn’t need me, at another shallow show,
    G+G    E minorEm      D MajorD
no day will I go roving to another

Verse 4:
D MajorD         G/BG/B      D MajorD
I should leave it all behind, never to return again,
   G/BG/B        D MajorD     E minorEm        G+G
for the cities they won’t mind, and I’ve nothing for to say
D MajorD          G/BG/B        D MajorD
And I’m not true love, we’ll sit and we will play,
    G+G     E minorEm         D MajorD
on the lovelyyyyy sweet banks of trillium

Outro:
D MajorD
G/BG/B   D MajorD     G/BG/B     D MajorD
Farther along we’ll, know more about it
G/BG/B   D MajorD      E minorEm     A augmentedA
Farther along we’ll, understand why
      D MajorD    G/BG/B     D MajorD
Cheer up my brother, live in the sunshine
G/BG/B   D MajorD     A augmentedA      D MajorD
We’ll understand it, all by and by
