Oh, I wish I had someone to love me,
G G7 C
oh, someone to call me their own.
C7 F
Oh, I wish I had someone to live with,
G G7 C
for I'm tired of living all alone.
C C7 F
Please do meet me tonight in the moonlight,
G G7 C
please do meet me tonight all alone,
C7 F
for I have a sad story I?ll tell you,
G G7 C
it's a story that's never been told.
C C7 F
I'll be carried to the new jail tomorrow,
G G7 C
leaving my poor darling alone,
C7 F
with the cold prison bars all around me,
G G7 C
and my head on a pillow of stone.
C C7 F
But I have a great ship on the ocean,
G G7 C
all mounted with silver and gold,
C7 F
and before my poor darling would suffer
G G7 C
this ship would be anchored and sold.
C C7 F
Oh, if I had the wings of a swallow,
G G7 C
over these prison walls I would fly,
C7 F
I would fly to the arms of my poor darling,
G G7 C
and there I'd be willing for to die.

G G7 C F C
it's a story that's never been told.
