Verse 1
It (G major) was (A minor) in (G major) the (D major) merry
(G major) month (A minor) of May
(E minor) When (G major) green buds (C major) all were swelling (B minor)
Sweet William (C major) on his (A minor) deathbed (G major) (D major) (E minor) lay
Full of (A minor) (G major) love of (C major) Barbara Al (E minor) len
So slowly, (G major) slowly (D major) she (G major) got (E minor) up
And (G major) slowly she (C major) drew nigh (B minor) him
The only (C major) words to him (G major) did say (E minor)
Young (C major) man, (G major) I think (C major) you're dy (E minor) ing
He (C major) turned (G major) his face unto the wall (E minor)
Death (G major) was (C major) in him will (B minor) ing
Goodbye, (C major) goodbye to my (G major) friends (E minor) all
Be (C major) good (G major) to (C major) Barbara Allen (E minor)
When he (G major) was dead and laid in (E minor) grave
She (G major) heard the death (C major) bells knelling (B minor)
And (C major) every stroke to her (G major) did (D major) seem (E minor)
Hard (G major) -hearted Barbara (C major) Al (E minor) len
Oh, (B minor) (G major) Mother, Mother, dig my grave
Make it long (C major) and (B minor) narrow
Sweet (G major) (B minor) (C major) William died (D major) of (G major) love (B minor) for (E minor) me
And (G major) I will (C major) die of (E minor) sorrow
She was (G major) buried in the old church (E minor) yard
Sweet (G major) William was (C major) beside (G major) her
Of (B minor) William's (C major) (D major) heart that (E minor) grew a (A minor) rose
Out of (D major) Barbara Allen's a (G major) briar
They grew and grew in the old churchyard
(E minor) Till they (G major) could grow (C major) no higher (B minor)
At (G major) (B minor) the (C major) end they formed (D major)
a (E minor) true lover (A minor) 's knot
And the (G major) rose grew round (D major) the (G major) briar
Twas in the (D major) merry (G major) month of (E minor) May
When (G major) green buds (C major) all were (B minor) swelling
Sweet (C major) William on his (G major) deathbed (E minor) laid
For love (G major) of Barbara (C major) Allen
(E minor) For (D major) love (B minor) of (D major) Barbara Allen (G major)
