(capo 2? casa) (intro) A5 A5 We met in the springtime when the blossoms unfold, the pastures were green E5 A5 and the meadows were gold. A5 Our love was in flower as summer grew on. Her love like the leaves E5 A5 now have withered and gone. A5 The roses have faded there's frost at my door. The birds in the morning E5 A5 don't sing anymore. A5 The grass in the valley is starting to die, and out in the darkness E5 A5 the whippoorwills cry. (refr?o) F#5 Alone and forsaken C5 by fate and by man. E5 Oh Lord if you hear me A5 please hold my hand, E5 A5 oh please understand. A5 Oh where has she gone to, oh where can she be. She may have forsaken E5 A5 some other like me. A5 She promised to honor, to love and obey. Each vow was a plaything E5 A5 that she threw away. (refr?o) F#5 Alone and forsaken C5 by fate and by man. E5 Oh Lord if you hear me A5 please hold my hand, E5 A5 oh please understand. A5 The darkness has fallen, the sky has turned gray, the hound in the distance E5 A5 is starting to bay. A5 I wonder, I wonder what she's thinking of. Forsaken, forgotten, E5 A5 without any love. (refr?o) F#5 Alone and forsaken C5 by fate and by man. E5 Oh Lord if you hear me A5 please hold my hand, E5 A5 oh please understand. (refr?o) F#5 Alone and forsaken C5 by fate and by man. E5 Oh Lord if you hear me A5 please hold my hand, E5 A5 oh please understand. (outro) A5 (let ring)
