D 
A

It was on one cold wintery night
E 
When the wind blew across
A 
the wild moon
D 
When Mary came wandering
G 
home with her child

Till she came to her own father's door
A

Father, dear father, she cried

Come down and open the door

will perish and die

From the wind that blow
A

across the wild moon

Verse 6
D 
A 
D 
But her father was deaf to her cry
E 
A 
Not a sound of her voice did he hear
D 
So the watchdog did howl
G 
And the village bells tolled
D 
A 
D 
And the wind blew across the wild moon
A 
D 
Oh, how the old man must have felt
E 
A 
When he came to the door the next morn
D 
And he found Mary dead,
G 
but the child still alive
D 
A 
D 
Closely grasping his dead mother's arm
A 
D 
In anguish he tore his gray hat
And the tears down his
E 
A 
cheeks they did pour
D 
When he saw how that night
G 
she had perished and died
D 
From the winds that blew
A 
D 
across the wild moor
A 
D 
In grief the old man pined away
E 
A 
And the child to its mother went soon
D 
And no one, say,
G 
hath lived back to this day
D 
A 
D 
And the cottage to run has gone
A 
D 
But the villagers point out the spot
E 
A 
Where the willows droop over the door
D 
Saying their Mary died
G 
Once a gay village bride
D 
From the wind that blew
A 
D 
across the wild world you
