Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
E
My  heart is sad, and I'm in sorrow
                   B
For the only one I love
     C#m              A
When shall I see him? Oh, no, never
       E           B      E
'Til  I meet him in heaven above

So he may know where I am sleeping
E            B    C#m
Perhaps  will weep over me

Verse 2:
C#m                  A
They told me that he did not love me
        E                     B
I could hardly believe it was true
   E           A      B
Until an angel softly whispered
                         C#m
"He  has proven untrue to you"

So he may know where I am sleeping

And perhaps  he'll weep over me

Tomorrow was our wedding day
    E                   B
But no, Lord, where is he?
   C#m              A
He's gone and found him another bride
E           B            E
And he cares no more for me

Chorus:
C#m         A                     E  B
Oh,  bury me under the Weeping Willow tree

So he may know where I am sleeping

And perhaps  he'll weep over me

C#m                       A
Bury me under the violets blue

To prove my love to him
C#m
Tell him that I'd die for him
E                      C#m
His love I never could win

Chorus:
C#m         A                     E  B
Oh,  bury me under the Weeping Willow tree

And perhaps will weep over me
A                B         A
And perhaps will weep over me
