On Top of Old Smokey Melody Maker Key of "G" **bend down 2 steps from "G" to "F" 1 1 2 -2 4 3 3 -2**-2 3 -2 On top of Old Smo key, all cov ered with snow, 1 1 2 -2 -2 -1 2 -2** 2 -1 1 I lost my true lover,for court in' too slow. 1 1 2 -2 4 3 3 -2** -2 3 -2 For cour tin's a plea sure,but part in' is grief, 1 1 2 -2 -2 -1 2 -2** 2 -1 1 A false-hearted lov er, is worse than a thief. A thief will just rob you, and take what you have, But a false-hearted lover, will lead you to your grave. The grave will decay you, and turn you to dust, Not one boy in a hundred a poor girl can trust. They'll hug you and kiss you, and tell you more lies, Than cross ties on a railroad, or stars in the sky. So come ye young maidens, and listen to me, Never place your affection in a green willow tree. For the leaves they will wither, the roots they will die, And you'll be forsaken, and never know why. |
