Key: G
Introduction:
Gm Bb
Over yonder in the graveyard
Gm Bb
Where the wild, wild flowers grow
Gm
There they laid my own true lover
She'd gone from me, forever more
Gm Bb
Fairer than the sweetest flower
Eb F
Restless as the wildest way
Gm
Pored in with love deep as a ocean
This is the girl that I did win
Gm Bb
I left her there back in the mountain
Eb F
To see the world riches to gain
Gm
Oh, when I returned no earthy treasure
Could ease this heart so filled with pain
Eb Bb
They saw high above the mountain
Eb Bb
Beneath that little mound of clay
C Cm Bb
The girl that I returned to marry
Eb F Dm
So stand a mound of flowers did lay
Gm, Eb, Bb, F,
Gm
I'll go lay you down and wonder
Lay aside my earthy gain
