[Verse 1]
[D]Goo[G]dby[C#]e, Mary, [G]I must g[D]o[G]
Said [Bm]a lad[C], now don't grieve so
For [D]its duty calls me far
across the [G]sea[F#]
Take this [G]autumn [F#]leaf of [G]gold,
[Bm]said [G]the [C]maidens will ne 'er grow old.
Always [C#]wear [D]it next [C#]your heart
and [D]think [G]of me.[F#]
Meet me [G]yonder down [Bm]the [G]lane,
when I [C]come back home again.
Meet [C#]the tree
where [D]this golden leaf once [G]grew.[C#]
[F#]Kiss me, Mary, then [D]we'll part[Bm]
[G]Said [Bm]the l[G]ad with [C]a broken heart
When [C#]the leaves be[D]gin to [C#]fall
I'll be [C]with [F#]you[G]
[F#]I'll be there, Mary [C#]dear[G], I'll be ther[C]e
When the [D]fragrance [C#]of the rose
fills the
[G]Near [D]that [G]old[Bm] tree[G], grand and tall,
[C#]when the l[B]eaves begin [C#]to fa[C]ll,
[Cdim]I'll be th[D]ere, yes, I'll be [C#]there,
sweet Mary [G]dear.[F#]
[G]See [F#]the lad [G]with empty sle[F#]eve,
[G]of his[B] comrades tak[C]ing leave,
they were [D]home again,
the transport had come [G]back.[F#][G]
[F#]If she loved y[G]ou long ag[D]o,[Bm]
[G]she [Bm]won't [G]love [C]you less, I know,
but one [D]arm will do to [C#]fold her [D]to [G]you,
[F#]It was autumn ti[G]me again[D],
[G]as he wan[C]dered down the lane,
there [C#]be neath t[D]hat old oa[C#]k tr[D]ee
[C#]he found a [F#]grave.[G][D]
[G]So he knelt in silent [C#]pray[G]er,
for [C]the one he loves slept there,
as [C#]the tears [D]fell on the[C#] golden
leaves [Bm]she gave.[G][F#]
I'll [G]be there, Mary [C#]dear,
[G]I'll be the[C]re,
when [D]the [C#]fragrance [D]of the [C#]rose
fills the [G]air.[D]
[Bm]Meet that [F#]old tree grand[G] and tall,
when the [C]leaves begin to [C]fall,
I'll be [D]there, yes, I'll be there,
sweet [Bm]Mary [G]dear.
