Verse 1
         G      C         G     C
It's a darling girl, my darling 
  G                       D
girl with eyes as dark as night
       G        C  G         
And a heart so true but just so 
     C             G       D       G
strong, set to live a darling life
    G         C        G      
As years roll by, she'll grow up 
    C  G                          D
fine and she'll sing a silent song
           G          C      
But she'll find your piano and 
     G            C
she'll find her wings
           G             D    G
and she'll sing all the days long


Chorus
C                 G
I'm waiting on a ghost
D                    C
To show her lovin arms
G          D/F#        Em        
and sweet Marie I can see your 
 C           G       D     G
faint light shining down on me

Well go call on her brother and

G                  D
go call on all the town

Tell them all today, your darling 
 C         G       D       G
girl is to wear a wedding gown
              G           C       
And though it all came so fast, 
   G              C
ten years soon will pass
G                        D
before there's room for three
    G          C          G      
My sister will grow, my mother

will know
       G           D        G
soon there will be room for me.

I'm waiting on a ghost

To show her lovin arms

and sweet Marie I can see your 
 C           G       D     G
faint light shining down on me

Verse 3
        G       C     G        C
Like an old toy top spins and stops
    G                         D
Or tag and last walks in the ball
   G            C     G           
A long summer's wait come winding 
C
down
           G      D      G
She'll be buried in the fall
G           C          G      C
And now she sleeps with you Marie
G                       D
bittersweet is this old world
      G       C       G       C 
They tell me soon my sister too 
      G       D      G
will have a darling girl
