Version 1 Version 2 Version 3

[Verse 1]

     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-G              A
She says that I   can't be your bride


[Verse 2]
(same chords progression)

All men are false, says my mother,
They'll tell you wicked, lovin' lies.
The very next evening, they'll court another,
Leave you alone to pine and sigh.


[Verse 3]
(same chords progression)

My daddy is a handsome devil
He's got a chain five miles long,
And on every link a heart does dangle
Of another maid he's loved and wronged.


[Verse 4]
(same chords progression)

Go court another tender maiden,
And hope that she will be your wife,
For I've been warned, and I've decided
To sleep alone all of my life.
