Down In The Willow Garden Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Down in th[C]e Willow garde[Am]n
Where [C]me and my love did [Am]meet
[C]As we sat a-courtin'
[Am]My My lo[C]ve fell of[G]f to s[C]leep
I [Am]had a bottle of [C]Burgundy w[Am]ine
My [C]love she did not [Am]know
[C]So I poisoned that dear little [Am]girl
[C]On the [G]banks be[C]low

[Verse 2]
I [C]drew a saber through [Am]her
It [C]was a bloody [Am]knife
I [C]threw her in the [Am]river
Which [C]was a [G]dreadful [C]sign
My [Am]father often [C]told [Am]me
That [C]money would set me [Am]free
If [C]I would murder that dear little g[Am]irl
Whose [C]name was [G]Rose [Am]Con [G]nolly
[C]

[Verse 3]
My father sits at his cabin [Am]door
[C]Wiping his tear-dimmed eyes
[Am]eyes
For his [C]only son soon shall [Am]walk
To [C]yonder [G]scaffold [C]high
My [Am]race is run,
be[C]neath the [Am]sun
[C]The scaffold now waits for [Am]me
For [C]I did murder that dear little g[Am]irl
Whose [C]name was [G]Rose [C]Con[G]nolly

[Outro 1]
