if it wasn't for your golden hair
I would not be belonely
If it wasn't for your golden hair
I would not be alone
G5
If it wasn't for your piercing stare
D5              G5  
I would not be belonely

If it wasn't for your piercing stare
D5              G5
I would not be alone
D5                      G5
I would not waltz in a widow's line
D5              G5     
What was yours would not be mine

If it wasn't for your golden hair
D5              G5
I would not be alone
G5
You courted me with princely airs
D5                  G5
Said you'd love me only

Kiss the ribbons in my hair
D5                     G5
Said darling come and fly
G5
Flower of the Calvary
D5                   G5
You swept me off my saddle
G5
Lifted me into your life
D5                    G5
A soldier's wife was I
D5                   G5
You marched proudly for the horn
D5                 G5     
I prayed for your swift return
D5                G5
I waited for you so forlorn
D5          G5
'Ere to be alone
G5                   
I longed for you, I longed to die
D5        G5
I was so belonely

The pillow's bare by my side
D5               G5
And yet I shall abide
D5              G5   
For heaven has aset for me
D5             G5
Companion for eternity
D5                   G5
So kiss the ribbons in my hair
D5                    G5
Say darling come and fly
G5
If it wasn't for your golden hair
D5              G5
I would not be alonely

If it wasn't for your golden hair
