                 A               Bm
She's sleeping here right by my side
                   G          
And in her right hand a silver 
  Em
dagger,
              Bm                A

lies.
                  G

Leave you alone to pine and sigh.

                         D
My daddy is a handsome devil
             A                Bm
He's got a chain five miles long,
               G              
And on every link a heart does 
    Em
dangle
            Bm                
Of another maid he's loved and 
    A
wronged.

                           D
Go court another tender maiden,
               A                 Bm
And hope that she will be your wife,
                G             
For I've been warned, and I've 
     Em
decided
           Bm               A
To sleep alone all of my life.
