Withered And Died

C                      F
This cruel country has driven me 
down
G             C     F            
Teased me and lied, teased me and 
 G
lied
C                        F
I've only sad stories to tell to 
this town
G                            C
My dreams have withered and died

F                      C          
Once I was bending the tops of the

Kind words in my ear, kind faces

 to see

Then I struck up with a boy from the
 West,
Played run and hide, played run and 
hide.
Count one to ten and he's gone with 
the rest
My dreams have withered and died

Silver moon sail up and silver moon 
shine
On the waters so wide, waters so 
wide
Steal from the bed of some good 
friend of mine
My dreams have withered and died

If I was a butterfly lived for a day
Then I could be free just blowing 
away

This cruel country has driven me 
down
Teased me and lied, teased me and 
lied
I've only sad stories to tell to 
this town
My dreams have withered and dies
