[Verse 1]
[D]Down [C#m]Shef field P[D]ark a maid did dwell,
A [F]brisk young man, he [D]loved [Em]her well.
[D]He courted her from [F#m]day to [C#m]day,
[D]At length he stole her[F#m] heart awa[D]y.
One [C#m]morn ing upstairs[D] to
make [F]her [D]bed,
[F#m]She lay her down her [D]weary [Em]head.
[D]Her mistress came on to
her and did say,
[A]What is the [D]matter with you today?
O mistress,
O mistress, you [F#m]little luno,
[D]What trials[F#m] and troubles tha[D]t I und[Em]ergo,
[D]Place your right hand upon my [Em]left bre[D]ast,
My [A]faint[D]ing heart, it knows no rest.
Then write him a letter
and write it with speed,
And send [F#m]it to him if [D]he can [Em]read,
[D]And bring me an answer
without delay,
For young Colin hath stolen
[G]your [D]heart away.
Then gather leaves to make [F#m]my bed[A],
[D]A feathery pillow for my wea[Em]ry head,
[D]And the leaves they'll flutter
from tree to leaf,
Will make a covering [Em]for m[D]e.
There is a flower that bloometh in May
That's [F#m]sel dom seen by ni[D]ght or[Em] day
[D]And the leaves they flutter from tree to leaf
will [A]make [D]a covering [G]for me.
