Silver Dagger

                                                A                                                    D  
Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother
                                             A                                      Bm  
She's sleeping here right by my side
                                                  G                              Em  
And in her right hand a silver dagger,
                                     Bm                                         A  
She says that I can't be your bride.
                                  A                                            D  
All men are false, says my mother,
                                                A                                      Bm  
They'll tell you wicked, lovin' lies.
                                                G                                                      Em  
The very next evening, they'll court another,
                                Bm                                         A  
Leave you alone to pine and sigh.
                                                                  D  
My daddy is a handsome devil
                                  A                                         Bm  
He's got a chain five miles long,
                                        G                                              Em  
And on every link a heart does dangle
                                Bm                                                    A  
Of another maid he's loved and wronged.
                                                                        D  
Gºcourt  
                                        A                                            Bm  
And hope that she will be your wife,
                                          G                                              Em  
For I've been warned, and I've decided
                             Bm                                      A  
To sleep alone all of my life.
