Verse 1
D 
G 
Come all ye fair and tender ladies,
D 
take warning how you
Em 
court your man.
C 
They're like the stars
G 
of summer's morning,
C 
first they appear and then
D 
they're gone.
G 
They'll tell to you some loving story
D 
Em 
And make you think they love you well
C 
G 
Then they'll away and go court another
C 
D 
And leave you in your grief to dwell
G 
I wish I was on some tall mountain,
D 
Em 
where the ivy rock is black as ink
C 
G 
I'd write a letter to my false lover,
C 
D 
whose cheeks are like the moony rink
G 
Oh, love is handsome, love is charming
D 
Em 
And love is pretty when it's new
C 
G 
But love grows cold as love grows older
C 
D 
And fades away like the morning dew
G 
Come all ye fair and tender ladies,
D 
take warning how you
Em 
court your man.
C 
They're like the stars
G 
of the sun's morning,
C 
first they appear and then they're
D 
G 
D 
Em 
C 
gone.
G 
C 
D 
G 
You you
