My heart is sad and I'm in sorrow,
A E
for the only one I love,
A D
when shall I see him, oh, no never,
A E A
'till I meet him in heaven above.
A D
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow,
A E
yes, under the weeping willow tree.
A D
So he may know where I am sleeping,
A E A
and perhaps he will weep over me.
A D
They told me that he did not love me,
A E
I could not believe it was true,
A D
until an angel softly whispered,
A E A
"He has proven untrue to you."
A D
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow,
A E
yes, under the weeping willow tree.
A D
So he may know where I am sleeping,
A E A
and perhaps he will weep over me.
A D
Tomorrow was our wedding day,
A E
but, oh Lord, oh, where is he?
A D
He's gone to seek him another bride,
A E A
and he cares no more for me.
A D
Oh, bury me under the weeping willow,
A E
yes, under the weeping willow tree.
A D
So he may know where I am sleeping,
A E A
and perhaps he will weep over me.
