Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Dm][Am][E][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]On top of old Smoky,
all covered with [E]snow
I lost my true lover,
for cordon too [Am]slow
For cordon's a pleasure,
and parting is [E]grief
But a false -hearted lover
is worse than a [Am]thief
A thief will just [C]rob you
and take what you [F]have
But a false [G]-hearted lover
will lead you to the [Am]grave, to the [E]grave
It [Am]will decay you and turn you to [E]dust
Not one girl in a hundred,
a poor boy can [Am]trust
Come all ye true lovers,
and listen to [E]me!
Never carve your affection
on a green willow [Am]tree
The leaves they will [C]wither,
the roots they will [F]die
I will all be for[G]saken,
and never know [Am]why,
never know [E]why!
[Am]On Old Smoky, all covered with s[E]now,
I lost my true lover
For cartin' too [Am]slow,
[E]For cartin' too [Am]slow.
[E][E]
