Fair & Tender Ladies Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Come all [D]ye fair and tender ladies,
take warning how to love [Em]your [D]man
For [Em]they [D]are bright stars
on a summer's morning
First [Em]they'll [D]appear and
then they are [Em]gone
[D]They'll tell to you some loving story
They'll make you think
that they [Em]love you [D]well
An[Em]d then they will [D]go and
court some other
Leave [Em]you alone [D]in grief to [Em]dwell[D]
I wish that I was [Em]a little [D]sparrow
So that I may have wings to [B]fly [D]away
But [Em]I would only [D]fly [B]to [D]tha[B]t false,
true lover
[D]An [Em]d when he w[D]ould ask,
I [B]would [Em]deny

[Verse 2]
So [Em]love it is tender and love [B]it is charming
And love it is pretty whil[Em]st it's [D]new
But love grows colder
as [Em]girls they grow [B]older
An[Em]d soon it [D]will fade
just like [B]the morning [Em]dew[D]
So young girls [B]cast your
[Ebdim]minds fro[B]m beauty[D]
For beauty it [B]does surely [Ebdim]fade[D]
And many's the bright and
sunshine morning
[Em]Turns out to be [D]a dark
and most mutinous day you
