Introduction:

                                                       D                                                 G                                                 D                                                     A 
        We have met and we have parted, we have spoke our last goodbye,
                                             D                                                       G                                                 D         A                               D 
        you have proved to me false hearted, you may now               forever go.
                                                 D                                                                   G 
        You have wrecked the heart I?ve cherished,
                                             D                                               A 
        you have done me day by day,
                                     D                                         G                                         D                       A                                   D 
        you are false but I?ll forgive you, to forget you                   I cannot say.
                   G                                               D                                                           G                                               D 
For I love you, dear, I love you, more than all this world, I know,
                                       D                                                     G                                                 D         A                               D 
you have proved to me false-hearted, you may now               forever go.

                                   D                                   G                         D                                                           A 
        On the river bank I?ll loiter till I see your face once more,
                                       D                                                       G                                   D         A                                                   D 
        then I?ll plunge beneath the water and I?ll land             on some far shore.
                     D                                                     G                                                     D                                                         A 
        Among the trees and bushes where the dark green willows wave,
                               D                                         G                                                         D         A                                         D 
        in the cold and silent rushes, there you?ll find               my lonely grave.
                         D                                                 G                                                   D                                                   A 
        O I wish I was white marble, cold and white on some far shore,
                                           D                                                                       G 
        this poor heart would cease from troubling,
                                     D         A                                                 D 
        and I?d feel                   the pain no more.
