Verse 1
(G major) It was on one (D major) cold winter (G major) night
When the wind blew (A major) across
the wild (D major) moor
When (G major) Mary came (D major) wandering
(G major) home with a child (C major)
Till she (G major) came to her (D major) own
father's (G major) door
"Father, dear (D major) father," she cried (G major)
"Come down and (A major) open the door (D major)
Or the child (G major) in my (D major) arms will
(G major) perish and (C major) die
From the (G major) winds that blow across (D major)
the wild (G major) moor."
Verse 2
But her (G major) father was deaf (D major) to her cry (G major)
Not a sound of a voice (A major) did he (D major) hear
So the (G major) watchdog did (D major) howl and
the (G major) village bells (C major) tolled
And the (G major) wind blew across (D major)
the wild (G major) moor
(D major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (D major)

Verse 3
(G major)
Oh, how the old man (D major) must have felt (G major)
When he came to the (A major) door
the next (D major) morn'
And he (G major) found Mary dead (D major)
but the (G major) child still alive (C major)
Closely (G major) grasping its (D major) dead mother's (G major) arms
Verse 4
In (G major) grief, the old (D major) man passed (G major) away
And the child, to it's (A major) mother, went soon (D major)
And (G major) no one, they (D major) say,
lives (G major) there to this (C major) day
And the cot (G major) tage, to (D major) ruin,
has (G major) gone
(D major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (D major)
Verse 5
(G major)
But the villagers point out the spot
Where the willows grew (A major) over the door (D major)
Saying, (G major) "There Mary died, (D major)
once the (G major) gay village (C major) bride
From the (G major) wind that blow across (D major)
the wild (G major) moor
