[Verse]
   Em               D
As I walked out one May morning
   Em
So early in the spring
  C         D                Em         D
I placed my back against the old garden gate
       C       D         Am
For to hear my true love sing
 
[Verse]
      Em                  D
“Come now my love and sit down by me
          Em
Where the leaves are springing green
         C        D          Em            D
For it's now very near three-quarters of a year
      C           D           Am
Since you and I together have been”
 
[Verse]
   Em                    D
“I will not come and sit down by you
    Em
Nor yet no other man
    C             D             Em          D
For you have been courting some other young girl
         C           D         Am
And your heart it is no longer mine”
 
[Verse]
      Em               D
There is a flower I've heard them say
  Em
I wish I could that flower find
     C            D       Em        D
It's called Heartsease by night and day
         C       D        Am
Would it ease my troubled mind?
 
[Verse]
  Em             D
I cast my anchor into the sea
       Em
And it sank down into the sand
   C      D         E     D
So did my heart all in my body
       C             D               Am
When I took my false love all by the hand
 
[Verse]
         Em              D
Oh, I'll never believe a man anymore
       Em
Be his hair white, yellow or brown
  C           D           Em      D
Unless he was high on the gallows tree
    C                D              Am
And swearing that he wanted to come down
 
[Verse]
   Em                 D
So girls, beware of a false lover true
      Em
Never mind what a young man might say
     C      D         Em           D
He's like a star on a foggy, foggy morning
    C                     D         Am   Em
You think he's near, he's far, far away
