DGD
Once I loved your fond affection, all my hopes on you was spent,
GDAD
till a dark-eyed girl persuaded, and you care no more for me.
DGD
Go on and leave me, if you wish to, never let me cross your mind,
GDAD
in your heart to love another, never on earth will I call you mine.
DAA7D
Joolayeeoh, layeeay, layee!
DGD
When I'm dead and in my coffin, and my pale face towards the sun,
GDAD
will you come and sit beside me, and think of what you've done
DGD
Go on and leave me, if you wish to, never let me cross your mind,
GDAD
in your heart to love another, never on earth will I call you mine.
DAA7D
Joolayeeoh, layeeay, layee!
DGD
When I'm dead and in my coffin, and the shroud about me bows,
GDAD
will you come and scatter roses upon your lover's mound.
DGD
Go on and leave me, if you wish to, never let me cross your mind,
GDAD
in your heart to love another, never on earth will I call you mine.
DAA7D
Joolayeeoh, layeeay, layee!
