A little maiden climbed an old man's knee; -5 -6 -5 -7-5 -7 8 -8 5 Begged for a story, "Do, Uncle, please. 5 6 5 -6 5 8 -9 8 8 Why are you single, why live alone-- -6 -7 7 8 6 -8 -7 6 7 Have you no babies, have you no home?" 7 -8 7 -7 6 -6 -7 7 6 "I had a sweetheart years, years ago. -6 -7 7 6 7 -6 -7 7 -8 Where she is now, pet, you will soon know. 5 6 5 -6 5 8 -9 8 -6 List to the story I'll tell it all. -6 -6 -7 7 8 6 -8 -7 6 7 I believed her faithless, after the ball."Chorus 8 9 8 7 -6 7 6 8 9 8 7 -6 -7 After the ball is over, after the break of morn. -9-10 -9 8 -8 -8 -8 -8 8 -8 -7 6 9 After the dancers leaving; after the stars are gone, 8 9 8 7 -6 7 6 -6 -8 8 -9 8 -8 Many a heart is aching, if you could read them all. 9 -8 -8 -8 8 -9 8 6 -6-7 6 7 Many the hopes that have vanished, after the ball |
