Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Am][Em][Em]
[Am][Am][Em][Em]

[Verse 1]
We [Am]met in the springtime
when blossoms unfold
The pastures were green
and the [Em]meadows were [Am]gold
Our love was in flower
as summer grew on
Her love like the leaves
now has [Em]withered and [Am]gone

[Verse 2]
The [Am]roses have faded,
there's frost at my door
The birds in the morning
don`t [Em]sing any[Am]more
The grass in the valley
is starting to die
And out in the darkness
the [Em]whippoorwills [Am]cry

[Chorus 1]
A[F]lone and forsaken by [C]fate and by man
Oh, Lord, if You hear me,
please [Am]hold to my hand
Oh, [E]please

[Interlude 1]
(under[Am]stand)[Am][Em][Em]
[Bm][Bm][F#m][F#m]

[Verse 3]
Oh, [Bm]where has she gone to,
oh, where can she be
She may have forsaken
some [F#m]other like [Bm]me
She promised to honor,
to love and obey
Each vow was a plaything
that [F#m]she threw awa[Bm]y

[Verse 4]
The [Bm]darkness is falling,
the sky has turned gray
A hound in the distance
is [F#m]starting to [Bm]bey
I wonder, I wonder,
what she's thinking of
Forsaken, forgotten,
with[F#m]out any lo[Bm]ve

[Chorus 2]
A[G]lone and forsaken by [D]fate and by man
Oh, Lord, if You hear me,
please [Bm]hold to my hand
Oh, [F#]please under[Bm]stand
Oh, [F#]please
under[Bm]stand[F#m][Bm][Bm]
