‘NEATH THE OLD CHESTNUT TREE
Trad folk
Key: E

-4  7*  7*  7*  7*   -6* 6  5* -4
My way-far-ing ways took me a-way
 6   -6*  7*  6  -8   7*  -6*
From the girl I loved so true
-6*  7*  -6* 7* -7   -8  
I kissed her on the cheek
   6    6  -8   -8   -7   6
‘Neath the old chest-nut tree
 -6* 7* -7  7* -6* 6
When I bid her a-dieu
-4   7*  7* 7*  7*  -6*  6   5*  -4
The road I did ride was full of tears
-4 6 -6*  7*   6  -8   7*  -6*
I was so lone-some I could cry
-6*-6*  7*  7*  -7   -8
Now I think of that girl 
   6    6  -8   -8   -7   6
‘Neath the old chest-nut tree
-6*7* -7  7* -6*  6
As I lay down to die
6  8* 8* 8*    8*  -8  -7   -8   -8   7*
So bu-ry me ‘neath the old chest-nut tree
 -7  -7   -7    7*  -6*  6  7*
That we carved our names up-on
 6   6    8*   8*   8*  8* -8 
And this lone-some old cow-boy
 -7  -8   -8   -8  -7   7*
Will fi-n’lly rest in peace
 6   6    6   -6*    7*   -6*
And that tree will still stand
 6   -5*  6
When I’m gone
 6    6    -6*   7* -6*   6   -5*  6
I’ll lie ‘neath the old chest-nut tree
