D 
G 
If you are going across the water
C 
G 
D 
Take me with you to be your partner
G 
At fairs or markets you'll
C

be well looked after
C 
Am 
And you can sleep with a
D 
G 
great king's daughter
C 
D 
G 
Oh, Donal, oh, you'll not find me lazy
C 
Like some high -born, expensive lady
D 
Em 
I'll do your milking,
C 
G 
I'll nurse your baby
C 
G 
And if you are set on,
D 
G 
I'll de fend you bravely
C 
You took what's before me
D 
G 
and what's behind me
C 
You took east and west
D 
when you would not mind me
Em 
Sun, moon and stars
D 
C 
G 
from my life you've taken
C 
D 
And God as well, or I'm much mistaken
G 
C 
When first I  saw you,
D 
G 
it was a Sunday evening
C 
T 'was at the Easter as
D 
I was kneeling,
G 
T 'was on Christ's
Em 
C 
Passion as I was reading,
G 
C 
With my mind on you
G 
D 
G 
and my foreheart bleeding
C 
D 
G 
Oh, as the snow is the heart that's
C 
Black as the call,
D 
is the grief that binds me
Em 
C 
G 
C 
G 
Black as the footprints on shiny hallway
C 
T 'was you who blackened it
D 
G 
for now and away
C 
You took what's before me
D 
G 
and what's behind me
C 
You took east and west
D 
when you would not mind me
Em 
Sun, moon and stars
C 
from my life you've taken
G 
C 
D 
G 
And God as well, oh, I'm much mistaken you
