Bury Me Beneath The Weeping Willow Tree

             A                      D
    My heart is sad and I'm in sorrow,
                A              E
    for the only one I love,
                 A                   D
    when shall I see him, oh, no never,
              A                E           A
   'till I meet him in heaven above.

         A                             D
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow,
         A                                        E
yes, under the weeping willow tree.
      A                             D
So he may know where I am sleeping,
         A                        E             A
and perhaps he will weep over me.

              A                      D
    They told me that he did not love me,
                  A                          E
    I could not believe it was true,
        A                  D
    until an angel softly whispered,
                     A            E         A
    "He has proven untrue to you."

         A                             D
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow,
         A                                        E
yes, under the weeping willow tree.
      A                             D
So he may know where I am sleeping,
         A                        E             A
and perhaps he will weep over me.

           A                        D
    Tomorrow was our wedding day,
                  A                          E
    but, oh Lord, oh, where is he?
              A                            D
    He's gone to seek him another bride,
                  A              E         A
    and he cares no more for me.

         A                             D
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow,
         A                                        E
yes, under the weeping willow tree.
      A                             D
So he may know where I am sleeping,
         A                        E             A
and perhaps he will weep over me.
