[Verse 1]
                                  F          C
On a bright and sunny day, when a young wife went away
                                             G
From a husband who had filled her heart with pain
       C                        F            C
On the table laid a note, these simple words she wrote
                     G           C
Goodbye I hope we'll never meet again

[Verse 2]
       F                                 C
To her mother she returned, for that old home she had yearned
                             G
For all the love for him she had, had fled
       C                              F                C
But he sought her out at last, with repentance for the past
                       G               C
But her mother met him in the door and said

[Chorus]
        F                           C
She was happy till she met you, the fault is all your own
                                    G
Id she wishes to forget you, please leave her alone
        C                         F
She has come to her old mother, because there is no other
C                      G          C
She'll be happy in her home sweet home

[Verse 3]
                                     F              C
I have come to say goodbye, said the husband with a sigh
                           G
Just let me take her to my heart again
         C                              F
Says the mother 't is too late, all her love has turned to hate
   C       G                          C
So go your way your pleading's are in vain

[Verse 4]
         F                                 C
She's my wife the husband cried, you can't take her from my side
                                   G
The law forbids you part us we are wed
        C                        F
But the mother answered nay, she sadly turned away
    C             G              C
And once again to him she calmly said

[Chorus]
        F                           C
She was happy till she met you, the fault is all your own
                                    G
Id she wishes to forget you, please leave her alone
        C                         F
She has come to her old mother, because there is no other
          C            G          C
She'll be happy in her home sweet home
