[Verse]
C G C
Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother
G Am
She's sleepin' close by my side
Am Dm
And in her right hand, she holds a dagger
Am G
And says that I shan't be your bride
[Verse]
G C
All men are false, says my mother
G Am
They'll tell you wicked lovely lies
Am Dm
And the very next evening court another
Am G
Leaving you alone to pine and sigh
[Verse]
G C
My father is a handsome devil
G Am
He's got a chain that's five miles long
Am Dm
From every link a heart does dangle
Am G
Of some poor maid he's loved and wronged
[Break]
G G C C
G G Am Am
Am Am Dm Dm
Am Am G G
[Verse]
G C
Wish that I was some little sparrow
G Am
Yes, one of those that flies so high
Am Dm
I'd fly away to my heart's true lover
Am G
And when he'd speak I would deny
[Verse]
G C
All on his breast I'd light and flutter
