THE HOUSEWIFE�S LAMENT hi-lo
American folk song
Key: G
TIME: 3/4
6 7 7 7 7 -8
-1 3 3 3 3 -3
One day I was walk-ing
8 -6 -6 -6 -6 6
-4 2 2 2 2 -1
I heard a com-plain-ing
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -7 7
-1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 2 -2* 3
And saw an old wom-an the pic-ture of gloom
6 7 7 7 7 -8 8 -6 -6
-1 3 3 3 3 -3 -4 2 2
She gazed at the mud on her door-step
-6 -6 6
2 2 -1
(twas� rain-ing)
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -7 7
-1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 2 -2* 3
And this was her song as she wield-ed her broom
7 8 8 8 8 -8 7 -8 -8 -8 -8 -7
3 -4 -4 -4-4-3 3 -3 -3 -3 -3 -2*
Oh, life is a toil and love is a trou-ble
7 7 7 7-7 -6 -7 -7 -7 -7
3 3 3 3-2* 2 -2* -2* -2* -2*
Beau-ty will fade and rich-es will flee
7 7 7 7 -8
3 3 3 3 -3
Pleas-ures they dwin-dle
8 -6 -6 -6 -6 6
-4 2 2 2 2 -1
And pric-es they dou-ble
6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 -6 -7 7
-1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 2 -2* 3
And noth-ing is as I would wish it to be
