G      C   G Em
Down in the willow garden,
   G         Em
where me and my love did meet
G   C   G  Em
As we sat a-courtin',
  G     D   G
my love fell off to sleep

Em  D     G    Em
I had a bottle of burgundy wine,
  G        Em
my love she did not know
G  C       G      Em
So I poisoned that dear little girl,
G     D    G
along the banks below

G   C   G    Em
I drew a sabre through her,
  G      Em
it was a bloody knife
 G     C   G Em
I threw her in the river,
   G   D    G
which was a dreadful sight

Em   D   G  Em
My father often told me,
   G         Em
that money would set me free
  C    C      G      Em
If I would murder that dear little girl,
   G    D     G
whose name was Rose Connolly

Em   C      G   Em
My father sits at his cabin door,
G           Em
wiping his tear-dimmed eyes
    G  C  G     Em
For his only son soon shall walk,
  G   D    G
to yonder scaffold high

Em   D    G    Em
My race is run, beneath the sun,
  G           Em
the scaffold now waits for me
  G   C      G      Em
For I did murder that dear little girl,
   G    D     G
whose name was Rose Connelly


THE END!
