Tom: D
Introdução: D
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.
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.
