[Am]Early one [G]morning at the [Em]St. James [Am]Hospital

Send for the [G]preacher to come and [Em]pray o’er my [Am]body
Send for the [G]doctor to come and [Em]heal up my [E]wound

Get me six pretty [G]maidens for to [Em]carry my [Am]coffin
Six pretty [G]maidens for to [Em]sing me a [E]song

To throw o’er my [Dm]body as they [E]carry me a[Am]long
