[Intro]
| Em | Em |

[Verse 1]
G Em
Down in the willow garden
G Em
Where me and my love did meet
G Em
As we set there a courtin'
G D G
My love fell off to sleep
Em G Em
I had a bottle of burgundy wine
G Em
My love she did not know
G Em
So I poisoned that dear little girl
G D G
On the banks below

[Verse 2]
G Em
I drew a saber through her
G Em
It was a bloody knife
G Em
I threw her in the river
G D G
Which was a dreadful sight
Em G Em
My father oft had told me
G Em
That money would set me free
G Em
If I would murder that dear little girl
G D G G
Whose name was Rose Connelly

[Verse 3]
G Em
My father sits at his cabin door
G Em
Wiping his tear dimmed eyes
G Em
For his only son soon shall walk
G D G
To yonder scaffold high
