[Verse 1]

F Dm           Dm    A7            Dm
    She went upstairs  to make her bed
            F                  Dm
And not one word to her mother said.
              Dm A7              Dm
Her mother she     went upstairs too
                      F                          Dm
Saying, "Daughter, oh daughter, what's troublin' you?":

[Verse 2]
---------------------
                 Dm A7         Dm
"Oh mother, dear,     I cannot tell
              F                  Dm
That railroad boy that I love so well.
           Dm A7         Dm
He courted me   my life away
           F                   Dm
And now at home will no longer stay."

[Verse 3]
---------------------
                 Dm A7          Dm
"There is a place     in London town
              F                 Dm
That railroad boy goes and sits down.
              Dm     A7            Dm
He takes that strange  girl on his knee
                F                      Dm
And he tells to her what he won't tell me."

[Interlude]

Dm A7 Dm F Dm           Dm A7               Dm
             Her father he   came home from work

[Verse 4]
---------------------
                     F                      Dm
Sayin', "Where is my daughter, she seems so hurt"
          Dm    A7            Dm
He went upstairs  to give her hope
                 F            Dm
An' he found her hangin' by a rope.

[Verse 5]
---------------------
                 Dm A7               Dm
He took his knife     and he cut her down
           F                    Dm
And on her bosom these words he found:
           Dm   A7              Dm
"Go dig my grave  both wide and deep,
             F                    Dm
Put a marble stone at my head and feet,

[Verse 6]
---------------------
          Dm     A7                 Dm
And on my breast,  put a snow white dove
            F                    Dm   F Dm
To tell the world that I died of love.
