As I walked out one morning fair,
D
to view the fields and taste the air,
A
for to view the fields and nettles around,
D
I thought I heard some lonesome sound.
A
I thought I heard my true love say,
D
oh do turn and come this way.

D A
You love some other, you don't love me,
D
you care not for my company.
A
You love some other and I know why,
D
because he has more gold than I.
A
But gold will melt and silver will fly,
D
my love for you will never die.

D A
There is a flower I've heard them say
D
that can be seen from day to day,
A
and if that flower I only could find
D
to cure this aching heart of mine.

D A
So fare you well my charming little love,
D
oh meet me in that land above.
A
And when we meet there in that land,
D
we'll take no more this parting hand.
