As recorded by Joan Baez
(From the 1961 Album JOAN BAEZ, VOL. 2)
Capo 4th fret
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
D G
Twas in the merry month of May
C G
When green buds all were swelling
C G Em
Sweet William on his death bed lay
G D G
For a love of Barbara Allen
[Verse 2]
D G
He sent his servant to the town
C G
To the place where she was dwelling
C G Em
Saying you must come, to my master dear
G D G
If your name be Barbara Allen
[Verse 3]
D G
So slowly, slowly she got up
C G
And slowly she drew nigh him
C D Em
And the only words to him did say
G D7 G
Young man I think you're dying
[Verse 4]
D G
He turned his face unto the wall
C G
And death was in him welling
C Em
Good-bye, good-bye, to my friends all
D7 G
Be good to Barbara Allen
[Verse 5]
D G
When he was dead and laid in grave
C G
She heard the death bells knelling
C Em
And every stroke to her did say
G D G
Hard hearted Barbara Allen
[Verse 6]
D G
Oh mother, oh mother go dig my grave
C G
Make it both long and narrow
C G Em
Sweet William died of love for me
G D G
And I will die of sorrow
[Verse 7]
D G
And father, oh father, go dig my grave
C G
Make it both long and narrow
C G Em
Sweet William died on yesterday
G D7 G
And I will die tomorrow
[Verse 8]
D G
Barbara Allen was buried in the old churchyard
C G
Sweet William was buried beside her
C D Em
Out of sweet William's heart, there grew a rose
G D G
Out of Barbara Allen's a briar
[Verse 9]
D G
They grew and grew in the old churchyard
C G
Till they could grow no higher
C D Em
At the end they formed, a true lover's knot
G D G C G
And the rose grew round the briar
