She awoke late in the morning,
Bm 
just at the break of day,
Em 
Saying there's a dead man in my bar,
Asus2 
Em 
I wish     he was away, away,

I wish     he was away.

the others by the feet
B

They threw him into a very deep well,

full fifty    fathoms deep, deep,
Esus4 
full fifty    fathoms deep

Sleep there, sleep there,
Em 
you false young love,
sleep there, sleep all alone
Bm 
Em 
And let the one that you

I won't sit on your knee.

For you have slain your
Bm

own true love,
Asus2 
D 
I'm sure you will slay me, me,
Asus2 
I'm sure     you will slay me.
Em 
Well, if I had your bow to bend,
Bm 
my arrow and my string,
Em 
I'd shoot you through the very heart
Asus2 
and no       more hear
Em 
D 
Asus2 
you sing, sing, and no       more hear
Esus4 
Em 
Well if you      had your bow to bend,
your arrow and your spring,
