[Verse 1]
G C
Tonight I'm sad my heart is lonely
G D
For the only one I love
G C
When will I see her, oh no never
G D G
Till we meet in heaven above
[Chorus]
G C
So bury me beneath the willow
G D
Under the weeping willow tree
G C
So she will know where I am sleeping
G D G
And perhaps she’ll weep for me
[Solo]

[Verse 2]
G C
She told me that she dearly loved me
G D
How could I believe it untrue
G C
Until an angel softly whispered
G D G
She could never care for you
[Chorus]
G C
So bury me beneath the willow
G D
Under the weeping willow tree
G C
So she will know where I am sleeping
G D G
And perhaps she’ll weep for me
[Solo]

[Verse 3]
G C
Tomorrow was to be our wedding
G D
Oh god, oh god, where can she be
G C
She’s gone a-courting with another
G D G
And no longer cares for me
[Chorus]
G C
So bury me beneath the willow
G D
Under the weeping willow tree
G C
So she will know where I am sleeping
G D G
And perhaps she’ll weep for me
[Outro]
G C
So she will know where I am sleeping
G D G
And perhaps she’ll weep for me
