(A minor) (D major) (A minor)
Verse 1
In (A minor) Scarlet (Asus4) Town
where (A minor) I was born,
There was (C major) a (E minor) fair maid dwell (A minor) ing,
And every youth cried well away,
For her name was Bar (Bsus4) bara (A minor) Allen.
Twas in (Asus4) the merry (A minor) month of May,
The green buds were (E minor) (A minor) a -swelling,
Sweet William on his deathbed lay
For the love of (Bsus4) Bacchria
(A minor) (D major) (A minor) He sent a ser (Asus4) vant (A minor) unto her
To the place where (E minor) she
was dwell (A minor) ing
Saying, must come to his deathbed now
If your name (C major) be Barbary (B minor) Al (A minor) len
So slowly, (Asus4) (A minor) slowly she got up
Slowly, slowly (E minor) she (C major) came nigh (A minor) him
And the only words to him (D major) (A minor) she said,
Young man, I think (B minor) you're dy (A minor) ing. (D major) (A minor)
As she was walking over the (Asus4) fields
She (A minor) heard the death (B minor) bell ne 'er (A minor) ring
(Asus4) An (A minor) d every stroke it seemed to say
Hard hearted (Bsus4) Bob Rihan (A minor) na
Oh mother, mother, make my bed
Make it long, (E minor) make it (A minor) narrow
Sweet William died for me today
I will die for him tomorrow
They buried her in the old churchyard
They buried him in the choir
And from his grave grew a red, red rose,
From (A minor) a grave (D major) a green (A minor) brier.
They grew and (A minor) grew to their steeple top,
Till they could grow no higher,
And there they twined in true love's knot
Red (A minor) rose around green
(A minor) briar (A minor) (D major) (A minor)
(A minor)
You (A minor)
