CAPO ON 2 FRET

Intro: Am 

Am
We met in the springtime

when the blossoms unfold,

the pastures were green
        E            Am 
and the meadows were gold.

Am
Our love was in flower

as summer grew on.

Her love like the leaves
         E            Am
now have withered and gone.

Am
The roses have faded

there's frost at my door.

The birds in the morning
      E        Am
don't sing anymore.

Am
The grass in the valley

is starting to die,

and out in the darkness
    E             Am
the whippoorwills cry.



[Chorus:]
F#
Alone and forsaken
   C
by fate and by man.
   E
Oh Lord if you hear me
       Am
please hold my hand,
   E      Am
oh please understand.



Am
Oh where has she gone to,

oh where can she be.

She may have forsaken
     E          Am
some other like me.

Am
She promised to honor,

to love and obey.

Each vow was a plaything
     E         Am
that she threw away.




[Chorus:]
F#
Alone and forsaken
   C
by fate and by man.
   E
Oh Lord if you hear me
       Am
please hold my hand,
   E      Am
oh please understand.



Am
The darkness has fallen,

the sky has turned gray,

the hound in the distance
   E           Am
is starting to bay.

Am
I wonder, I wonder

what she's thinking of.

Forsaken, forgotten,
  E         Am
without any love.




[Chorus:]
F#
Alone and forsaken
   C
by fate and by man.
   E
Oh Lord if you hear me
       Am
please hold my hand,
   E      Am
oh please understand.





[Chorus:]
F#
Alone and forsaken
   C
by fate and by man.
   E
Oh Lord if you hear me
       Am
please hold my hand,
   E      Am
oh please understand.



Outro: Am (let ring)
