Alone And Forsaken Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]We met in the springtime
When blossoms unfold
The pastures were green
And the [E]meadows [Am]were gold

[Verse 2]
Our [Am]love was in flower
As summer grew on
Her love, like the leaves
Now [E]has withered and [Am]gone

[Verse 3]
The roses have [Am]faded
There's frost at my door
The birds in the morning
[E]Don't sing any[Am]more

[Verse 4]
The grass in [Am]the valley
Is starting to die
And out in the darkness
[E]The whip- poor- [Am]wills cry

[Verse 5]
[F]Alone and forsaken
By [C]fate and by man
Oh, lord if you hear me
Please [Am]hold to my hand
Oh, [E]please understand
[Am]

[Verse 6]
Oh, where has she gone to
Oh, where can she be?
She may have forsaken
[E]Some other like [Am]me

[Verse 7]
She promised to [Am]honor
To love and obey
Each vow was a plaything
[E]That she threw [Am]away

[Verse 8]
[Am]The darkness is falling
The sky has turned gray
A hound in the distance
Is [E]starting [Am]to bay

[Verse 9]
I [Am]wonder, I wonder
What she's thinking of?
Forsaken, forgotten
[E]Without any [Am]love
[F]Alone and forsaken

[Verse 10]
By [C]fate and by man
Oh, lord if [G]you hear me
Please [Am]hold to my hand
Oh, [E]please under[Am]stand
[F]Alone and forsaken
By [C]fate and by man
Oh, lord if you hear me
Please [Am]hold to my hand
Oh, [E]please under[Am]stand
[E]Oh, please understa[Am]nd
[E]Oh, please [Am]understand
