Intro 1
(A minor) (D major) (G major)
(A minor) (G major) (A minor)
(G major) You came,
Verse 1
(A minor)
I know not where you came
We met, was in the dance
There was honey in each
word of yours
Glamour in each glance
(D minor) Though (A minor) many were around,
there ain't nothin' we saw but him
Upon his brow a starry gem,
fresh fall and snow seemed dead
It (G major) was not for the (A minor) diamond ring
(G major) upon your lily -white (A minor) hand
It was not for your noble name,
it was not for your love (F major) (A minor)
You've gone, it was a weary night,
we parted at the fern
You swore by all the stars above
that (F major) you would (G major) soon return
(A minor) Oh, you would soon return,
my love, when I, your (G major) bride, would (C major) be
But backward (A minor) will Bernie
rather (F major) ye return (G major) to me (A minor)
It (G major) was not for the (C major) diamond ring
(F major) upon (G major) your lily -white (A minor) hand
It was not for your noble name,
(F major) it was not (G major) for your (A minor) land (G major)
(F major) (A minor) (G major) (F major) (G major) (D major)
They tell (A minor) me that some smiling dame
of any age like to thine
(G major) Would (A minor) take thee by the fickle hand,
the (F major) falsehood (G major) placed in (A minor) mine
Music and the rose -red wine
to greet her shall ap (C major) pear
(G major) Her (A minor) bridal son a sigh I bring,
(F major) bridal (A minor) pledge a tear
It (G major) was not for the (C major) diamond ring
(G major) upon your lily -white (A minor) hand
It was not (G major) for your (A minor) noble name,
(F major) it was not (G major) for your (A minor) land (G major) (A minor) (G major)
(A minor) (D major) (G major) (A minor)
(G major) (F major) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (C major) (F major) (G major) (A minor)
(G major) (A minor) (G major) (D major)
Oh, would that thou hadst passed me by
In coldness or in pride
Thou wrought the cruel wrong in her
In whom the truth relied
(A minor) The hunters to the greenwood gone
His spear lies (G major) at his rest (C major)
(A minor) But he'll not wound the
trusting dove
Sheltering in (G major) his breast (A minor)
It (G major) was not for the (C major) diamond ring
(F major) Upon (G major) your lily -white (A minor) hand
It was not for your noble name,
(F major) it was not (G major) for your (A minor) land
It (G major) was not for the (C major) diamond ring
(F major) upon (G major) your lily -white (A minor) hand
It was not (G major) for your (A minor) noble name (D major)
It was not for your (A minor) land
(G major) (F major) (A minor) (G major) (F major) (G major) (A minor)
