Answer To Weeping Willow

(intro) D G D A D G D A D

      D                          G
My love is dead and buried yonder
     D                                     A
beneath the weeping willow tree.
             D                           G
What wrecks my life and makes me wonder
        D              A          D
is because she died for me.

          D                        G                                       D                  A
Then lay me down in death beside her, for she's all this life to me,
      D                       G                             D           A            D
that I may join and e'er caress her, in a land beyond the sea.

      D                       G
    Yes, she died before I told her
              D                           A
    that I loved her true and kind,
             D                   G
    and that I did not mean to fool her,
                  D        A      D
    but she left me to repine.

          D                        G                                       D                  A
Then lay me down in death beside her, for she's all this life to me,
      D                       G                             D           A            D
that I may join and e'er caress her, in a land beyond the sea.

                D              G
    God, shall I ever get forgiveness
                  D                         A
    for the deeds that I have done,
               D                     G
    and meet up yonder her sweet charming,
               D           A          D
    for I know she did me some.

          D                        G                                       D                  A
Then lay me down in death beside her, for she's all this life to me,
      D                       G                             D           A            D
that I may join and e'er caress her, in a land beyond the sea.
