[Verse 1]
Am
We met in the springtime when blossoms unfold
Am7 Am
The pastures were green and the meadows were gold
Am
Our love was in flower as summer grew on
E Am
Her love like the leaves now has withered and gone
Am
The roses have faded theres frost at my door
E Am
The birds in the morning dont sing anymore
Am
The grass in the valley is starting to die
E Am
And out in the darkness the whippoorwills cry
[Chorus]
F C
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Am
Oh Lord if You hear me, please hold to my hand
E Am
Oh please understand
[Verse 2]
Am
Oh where has she gone to, oh where can she be?
Am7 Am
She may have forsaken some other like me
Am
She promised to honor, to love and obey
E Am
Each vow was a plaything that she threw away
Am
The darkness is fallin' the sky has turned gray
E Am
A hound in the distance is starting to bay
Am
I wonder, I wonder what she's thinkin' of
E Am
Forsaken forgotten without any love
[Chorus]
F C
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Am
Oh Lord if You hear me, please hold to my hand
E Am
Oh please understand
