Come all ye fair  and tender maidens

 They're like a star   of a summer's morning

If I'd a kn-own before I courted

 That love it was   such a killin' thing

 I'd lock my heart    in a box of golden

  And fastened it up with a silver chain.

I'd fly away    to my own true lover

 And when he speaks I won't deny.

But I am not   no little sparrow
Em          D C D           C     Em
  I have no wings   neither can I fly
C      D         G Em G      Em        G       Em
  I'll sit right do-wn in my grief and sorrow
