[Primeira Parte]
Am
We met in the springtime
When blossoms unfold
The pastures were green
E Am
And the meadows were gold
Our love was in flower
As summer grew on
Her love like the leaves
E Am
Now has withered and gone
The roses have faded
There's frost at my door
The birds in the morning
E Am
Don't sing anymore
The grass in the valley
Is starting to die
And out in the darkness
E Am
The whippoorwills cry
[Refrão]
F C
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh, Lord, if You hear me
Am
Please hold onto my hand
E Am
Oh, please understand
[Segunda Parte]
Oh, where has she gone to, oh
Where can she be
She may have forsaken
E Am
Some other like me
She promised to honor
To love and obey
Each vow was a plaything
E Am
That she threw away
The darkness is falling
The sky has turned gray
A hound in the distance
E Am
is starting to bay
I wonder, I wonder
What she's thinking of
Forsaken, forgotten
E Am
Without any love
[Refrão]
F C
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh, Lord, if You hear me
Am
Please hold onto my hand
E Am
Oh, please understand
