Bury me under the weeping willow tree (video)

A D

1. My heart is sad and I'm in sorrow,

A E

for the only one I love,

A D

when shall I see him, oh, no never,

A E A

'till I meet him in heaven above.

A D

Oh, bury me under the weeping willow,

A E

yes, under the weeping willow tree.

A D

So he may know where I am sleeping,

A E A

and perhaps he will weep over me.

A D

2. They told me that he did not love me,

A E

I could not believe it was true,

A D

until an angel softly whispered,

A E A

"He has proven untrue to you." + CHORUS

A D

3. Tomorrow was our wedding day,

A E

but, oh Lord, oh, where is he?

A D

He's gone to seek him another bride,

A E A

and he cares no more for me. + CHORUS
