Down ^Gin the willow ga^Emrden Where m^Ge and my love did ^Emmeet And ther^Ge we sat a cour^Cting My love^G fell of^Df to s^Gleep

I h^Cad a bottle of ^Gburgundy w^Emine My love^G she did not^Em know And ^Gthere I poisoned that dear little^C girl Down^G by the ^Dbanks bel^Gow

I drew my saber through ^Emher It w^Gas a bloody k^Emnife I ^Gthrew her in the r^Civer It w^Gas a drea^Ddful si^Gght

My f^Cather ofte^Gn told^Em me That m^Goney would set me ^Emfree If I did m^Gurder that dear little g^Cirl Whose ^Gname was ^DRose Conne^Glly

Now he sits in his own ^Emcabin door A-^Gwiping his tear-brimmed ^Emeye ^GWeeping for his only s^Con On ^Gyonder scaf^Dfold hi^Ggh

My ^Emrace is run be^Gneath the ^Emsun The ^Gdevil is waiting for ^Emme For ^GI murdered that dear little ^Cgirl Whose ^Gname was R^Dose Conne^Glly
