Twas  (D major) on
A 
D 
one  (A major) cold wintery  (D major) night,
E 
And the wind blew across  (E major) 
A 
the wild  (A major) moor,
Asked for Mary,
D 
A 
D 
G 
 (D major) came  (A major) wandering home  (D major) with her  (G major) child
D 
A 
D 
Till she  (D major) came to her  (A major) own father's  (D major) door
A 
D 
Oh father, dear  (A major) father, she cried  (D major) 
E 
A 
Come down and  (E major) open the  (A major) door
D

Of the  (D major) child in my  (A major) arm,

D 
A 
I'm  (D major) now doomed to roam  (A major) 
D 
G 
without friend (D major) s or a  (G major) home
D 
A 
D 
And no  (D major) one to take  (A major) pity  (D major) on me
A 
D 
But her father was  (A major) deep to her  (D major) cries,
E 
A 
Not a sound of her  (E major) voice did he  (A major) hear,
D 
A 
Though the  (D major) watchdog did  (A major) howl,

and the  (D major) village bells  (G major) toll,
D 
A 
D 
And the  (D major) wind blew across  (A major) the wall.  (D major)

And  (D major) found Mary dead,  (A major) 
D 
but the  (D major) child still alive
G 
D

D 
 (G major) Closely  (D major) clasped in its  (A major) dead mother's  (D major) arms
A

In anguish he  (A major) tore his gray  (D major) hair
E

While a tear down his  (E major) cheeks ate it  (A major) poor
D 
A 
When  (D major) he saw how that  (A major) night
D

she'd  (D major) perished and  (G major) died

And  (D major) no one, they say,  (A major) 
D 
G 
has lived  (D major) there till this  (G major) day,
D 
A

And the  (D major) cottage to  (A major) ruin has  (D major) gone
A

But the villagers point  (A major) out a  (D major) spot
E

Where the willows droop  (E major) over the  (A major) door
