[Verse 1]
Em G** A** D D
Come all you, fair and tender ladies,
Em G** A** Bm Bm
take warning how you court your men.
G G** D/F#** Em Em**
They’re like the stars on a summer’s morning,
D/F#** G G A A A A
they first appear and then they’re gone.
[Verse 2]
Em G** A** D D
They’ll tell to you some flattering story
Em G** A** Bm Bm
and then declare that they love you well.
G G** D/F#** Em Em**
Then they’ll go and court some other
D/F#** G G A A A A
and leave you here in grief to dwell.
[Verse 3]
Em G** A** D D
I wish I was a little sparrow
Em G** A** Bm Bm
and one of those that could fly so high.
G G** D/F#** Em Em**
And I’d fly home to my true love’s dwelling,
D/F#** G G A A A A
when he would speak, I’d be close by.
[Verse 4]
Em G** A** D D
I wish to the Lord I’d never seen him
Em G** A** Bm Bm
or in his cradle he had died.
G G** D/F#** Em Em**
And I’d lie down in my grief and sorrow
D/F#** G G A A A A
and try to pass my troubles by.
[Verse 5]
Em G** A** D D
If I had known before I courted
Em G** A** Bm Bm
that love had been so hard to win,
G G** D/F#** Em Em**
I’d locked my heart with keys of golden
D/F#** G G A A A A
and pinned it down with a silver pin.
[Verse 6]
Em G** A** D D
Oh, love is great and love is charming
Em G** A** Bm Bm
and love is pure when first it’s new.
G G** D/F#** Em Em**
But love grows old and love grows colder,
D/F#** G G A A A A
it fades away like morning dew.
[Verse 7]
Em G** A** D D
Come all you, fair and tender ladies,
Em G** A** Bm Bm
be careful how you court your men.
G G** D/F#** Em Em**
They’re like the stars on a summer’s evening,
D/F#** G G A A A A A A*
they first appear and then they’re gone.
