Unconstant Lover by Maura OConnell
Unconstant Lover
[Intro]
G D G
[Verse 1]
D G
Oh, it''''s meetings a pleasure and it''''s parting a grieve
D
And an unconstant lover is worse not a thief
Em C
For the thief he will rob you and just steal what you have
G D G
But an unconstant lover will follow you to your grave
Em C
The thief he will rob you and just steal what you have
G D G
But an unconstant lover will follow you to your grave
[Chorus]
C
Oh, they''''ll buy you fine trinkets, fine garments and flowers
G D
And they''''ll call in at tea-time to pay their devours
Em C
They''''ll swear that they love you by the light of the moon
G D G
And propose marriage? No, sherry cobblers at Taylor''''s Saloon
[Verse 2]
D G
Ah, but when you are married, look out for your hub
D
''''Cause evenings you spend at the old fellows'''' club
Em C
At the officer''''s store he was kept, he''''ll pretend
G D G
And so he was too, drinking rum with a friend
Em C
At the officer''''s store he was kept, he''''ll pretend
G D G
And so he was too, drinking rum with a friend
[Verse 3]
G D G
But fortunes are false and a fickle young day
D
And it''''s worse than bad luck for to die an old maid
Em C
And the best of all blessings we can meet in this life
G D G
Is a kind, loving husband and a good-tempered wife
Em C
And the best of all blessings we can meet in this life
G D G
Is a kind, loving husband and a good-tempered wife
[Outro]
G D G D G
