I Wonder Whats Keeping My True Love Tonight

  G             G/B        F           C
I wonder what's keeping my true love tonight
  F                 G       Am  F     Am
I wonder what's keeping her out of my sight
      F                G      Am        F   Am
It is little she knows of the pain that I endure
       G     Am  G    G/B          F           C     F
Or she would not stay from me this night, I am sure

[Verse 2]
   G     Am  G   G/B          F          C
Oh love, are you coming, your cause to advance?
   F                 G         Am  F      Am
Oh love, are you waiting for a far better chance?
   F                   G          Am F      Am
Or have you got a sweetheart laid by you in store?
           G  Am  G  G/B              F          C      F
And you're coming to tell me that you love me no more?

[Verse 3]
   G     Am  G   G/B        F          C
Oh love, I'm not coming, my cause to advance
    F                 G         Am  F      Am
And love, I'm not waiting for a far better chance
    F                 G          Am F     Am
But I have got a sweetheart laid by me in store
        G      Am G    G/B        F           C     F
And I'm coming to tell you that I love you no more

[Verse 4]
         G Am  G    G/B           F            C
For 'tis I can love lightly, 'tis I can't love long
         F                  G              Am       F      Am
And 'tis I can love the old love, 'til the new love comes along
       F                 G           Am       F       Am
I just said that I loved you, for to set your mind at ease
    G    Am  G   G/B            F           C
But when I'm far from you, I'll love whom I please

[Verse 5]
           G    Am G  G/B             F          C
Well, I've gold in my pocket and I've love in my heart
    F                 G           Am  F        Am
But I can't love a maiden who has got two sweethearts
     F                     G         Am   F     Am
Your love, it lies as lightly as the dew upon a thorn
      G    Am G   G/B            F          C     F
Comes down in the evening, goes away in the morn

[Verse 6]
      G      Am G     G/B           F          C
Green grass, it grows bonny, spring water runs clear
     F             G            Am      F  Am
I am weary and lonesome for the love of my dear
          F                    G             Am     F Am
You're my first and false true love and 'tis lately I knew
         G      Am   G G/B            F          Am    F  C
That the fonder that I loved you, the falser you grew
