Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D](Do[Asus4]lly Parto[D]n)[C][D]

[Verse 2]
I know this dress I'm wearing doesn't [C]hide
the secret [Bm]I've tried [D]concealing[Asus4][D][C]
When he [D]left he promised me he'd be [C]back
by the [Bm]time it was re[D]vealing[Asus4][D]
[C]The sun behind a cloud just casts the crawling
shadow o'er the field[D]s of [Asus4]clover[D][C]
And [D]time is running out for me,
I [C]wish that he would [G]hurry down from [D]Dover[Asus4][D][C]
[D]He's been gone so long,
when he [C]left the snow was [G]deep upon [D]the ground[Asus4][D][C]
And [D]I have seen a spring and summer p[C]ass and
now [G]the leaves are turn[D]ing [Asus4]brown[D]
At [C]any time a tiny face will show itself
'cause waiting's al[D]most over
But I won't have a name to give it [C]if he doesn't [G]hurry [Bm]down from [D]Dover,
from [Asus4]Dover, from [D]Dover[C]

[Verse 3]
[D]My folks weren't understanding,
when [C]they found out [Bm]they sent me from [D]the home [Asus4]place[D][C]
[D]My daddy said if folks found out he'd be[C]
ashamed to [G]ever show [D]his [Asus4]face[D]
My [C]mamma said I was a fool,
she did not believe it [D]when I told [Asus4]her[D][C]
Momma, [D]everything's gonna be all right 'cause [C]soon
he would [G]be coming down from [D]Dover
I found a place to stay out on a farm takin' care of that old lady
She never asked me nuthin'

[Verse 4]
[D]so I never
talked to her about my baby
I sent a messgae to my mom with a name
and address [Eb]of Ms. ol' Grover
And to make sure he got that information
when he came down from Dover

[Verse 5]
[Eb]I loved him more than anything and I [Db]could
not re[Ab]fuse him when [Eb]he needed me
He was the only one I'd loved and [Db]I just
can't be[Ab]lieve that he was [Eb]usin' me
He [Db]wouldn't leave me here like this,
I know it can't be so, it can[Eb]'t be o[Bbsus4]ver[Eb]
He wouldn't make me go through this [Db]alone,
he'll [Ab]be coming down [Eb]from [Bbsus4]Dover[Eb][Bbsus4]

[Verse 6]
My [Eb]body aches the time is here it's [Db]lonely in
this [Ab]place where [Eb]I'm l[Bbsus4]ying[Eb]
Our baby has been born, but something's [Db]wrong,
it's [Ab]too still, I [Eb]hear no crying
[Db]I guess in some strange way she knew she'd
never have a father's arms to [Eb]hold her
So dying was her way of tellin' [Db]me he wasn't c[Ab]oming down from Do[Eb]ver,
from Dover, from Dover
[Db]Down from [Ab]Dover

[Outro 1]
[Eb]
