Oh yes I'm sick, I'm very sick.
I hear [A] the death [D] wind howling.
[G] No [D] better, no better I never shall be.
If I can't [A] have [D] Barbary Allen, I can't forgive that jealous knight.
Down at [A] the Lockwood [D]
Tavern, you drank and drank with the ladies there.
And you [A] slighted [D] Barbary Allen.

She was on her long way home.
She saw [A] the [D] herbs a-coming, [G] [D] laid out on a corpse of clay.
The time they [A] looked, [D]
the more she looked, the more she moaned.
Till she fell to [A] the ground [D] in sorrow.
[G] Sweet [D] William died for me today.
I'll die [A] for him [D] tomorrow.
They [G] [D] buried her in the old church yard.
And [A] William's grave [D] was nigher.
[G] On [D] William's grave there grew a red rose.
On [A] Barbara's grave [D] a briar.
They grew and grew up the old church wall.
Till they [A] could grow, [D]
they laughed and tied.
In a true love knot, the rose wrapped [A] round [D] her neck.
Silver fingers and silver growl.
The [A] splendor of [D]
Celine.
I'll [G] [D] be well, sweet William, I'll be.
For the love [A] of [D] Barbary Allen.
