Here for "Remington" and all is this American Civil war folk song
as per tabbs by harplov1 "Prisoners Lament" but with lyrics.
6 6 7 4 -4 5 -4 4 -5 -5 Oh, I wish I had someone to love me, -7 -6 5 5 -5 5 -4 Someone to call me their own. 6 6 7 4 -4 5 -4 4 -5 -5 Oh, I wish I had someone to live with -5 -5 -7 -6 5 5 -4 4 'Cause I'm tired of livin' alone.
Same melody for the following verses.
2 Oh, please meet me tonight in the moonlight, Please meet me tonight all alone, For I have a sad story to tell you, It's a story that's never been told
3 I'll be carried to the new jail tomorrow, Leaving my poor darling alone, With the cold prison bars all around me And my head on a pillow of stone.
4 Now I have a grand ship on the ocean, All mounted with silver and gold, And before my poor darlin' would suffer, Oh, that ship would be anchored and sold.
5 Now if I had the wings of an Angel Over these prison walls I would fly, And I'd fly to the arms of my poor darlin', And there I'd be willing to die.
Yours Harmusman |
