[VERSE 1]
[G]Come all ye f[C]air and tende[G]r ladies
t[G]ake warning h[C]ow, you court young [D]men.
[D]They're like a [Am7]stars of a summer's m[G]orning
t[G]hey first ap[Am7]pear, and then they're g[D]one.
[VERSE 2]
[G]They'll tell to [C]you, some loving [G]story
t[G]hey'll make you think[C] , that they love you true[D] .
[D]Straight away t[Am7]hey'll go, and court [G]another
[G]and that's t[Am7]he love they had for you[D] .
[VERSE 3]
[G]If I had kn[C]own before I cou[G]rted
I[G] would hav[C]e never courted none[D] .
[D]I'd lock [Am7]my heart in a box of g[G]olden
[G]and fasten it u[Am7]p with a silver [D]pin.
[VERSE 4]
[G]Do you reca[C]ll our days of c[G]ourting?
[G]When your h[C]ead lay on my br[D]east
[D]You'd mak[Am7]e me believe by the fa[G]lling of your arms
That the sun rose in the west.
[VERSE 5]
[G]I wish I [C]was, a little spar[G]row
a[G]nd I had w[C]ings with which to f[D]ly
[D]I'd fly a[Am7]way, to my false true [G]lover
[G]and when he'd s[Am7]peak, I would de[D]ny.
[VERSE 6]
[G]But I am no[C]t a little sparr[G]ow
[G]Neither hav[C]e I wings to [D]fly
[D]So here I[Am7]'ll sit in grief and s[G]orrow
[G]And watch my tr[Am7]oubles pass me b[D]y
