INTRO:
/ / / / / / / / / / /
VERSE 1 (AK):
Tonight I'm sad my heart is lonely
For the only one I love
When will I see him, oh no never
/ (7 fr.) /
Till we meet in heaven above
CHORUS (Together):
So bury me beneath the willow
/ /
Under the weeping willow tree
So she will know where I am sleeping
/ /
And perhaps she’ll weep for me
VERSE 2 (LL):
She told me that she dearly loved me
How could I believe it untrue
Until the angels softly whispered
/ (7 fr.) /
She will prove untrue to you
CHORUS (Together):
So bury me beneath the willow
/ /
Under the weeping willow tree
So she will know where I am sleeping
/ /
And perhaps she’ll weep for me
/ / / / / / / / / / / /
/ / / / / / / / / / /
VERSE 3 (AK):
Tomorrow was our wedding day
Oh god, oh god, where can he be
He’s out a-courting with another
/ (7 fr.) /
And no longer cares for me
CHORUS (Together):
So bury me beneath the willow
/ /
Under the weeping willow tree
So she will know where I am sleeping
/ /
And perhaps she’ll weep for me
So bury me beneath the willow
/ /
Under the weeping willow tree
So she will know where I am sleeping
/ /
And perhaps she’ll weep for me
