Bury Me Beneath The Willows

chorus

9 -10 9 8 -8 7 -8 7 -6 6 7
Bur-y me be-neath the willow, Neath the

[8 8 -9 8] -8 9 -10 9 8 -8
weeping willow tree. When he hears his

7 -8 7 -6 8 -9 [8 6 -7
love is sleeping, May-be then he’ll think

-8] 7
of me.

My heart is sad and I am lonely,
Thinking of the one I love.
When will I meet him? Oh, no never,
Unless we meet in heaven above.
(play chorus next)

Tomorrow was to be our wedding,
I pray, Oh Lord, where can he be?
He’s gone, he’s gone to love another;
He no longer cares for me.
(play chorus next)

He told me that he dearly loved me,
How could I believe him untrue?
Until one day some Neighbors told me.
“He has proven untrue to you.”
