[Fm] In Scarlet Town where I was born, [F]
there was a fair maid dwellin'
[Fm] Made every youth cry [F] well the day [Bb] her name was [F] Barbara Allen
It was in the merry months of May, Dogwood's buds were swellin'
Sweet William on his death bed lay [Bb] for the [C] love of [F] Barbara Allen
He sent his servant to the town, the town where she was dwellin'
My master's sick and sins for you if your [C] name be [F] Barbara Allen
Slowly, slowly she got up, slowly she went to him
And all she said when she got there, [Gm] young man [C] I think [F] you're dyin'
Yes I'm sick and very sick, death on me is dwellin'
No better, no better I never shall be [Bb] if I [C] can't have [F] Barbara Allen
Yes you're sick and very sick, death on you is dwellin'
No better, no better you never shall be, Lord you can't [C] have [F] Barbara Allen
Do you remember in yonder's town when we were at the cavern
You drank your health to the ladies all around [Bb] and [C] slighted Barbara [F] Allen
Yes I remember in yonder's town when we were at the cavern
I drank my health to the ladies all around [Bb] and [C] gave my [F] love to Allen
While she was on her way back home she heard the birds a-singin'
They sing so loud they seem to say hard [C]-hearted [F] Barbara Allen
Father, oh father go make my bed, make it long and narrow
Sweet William died for pure, pure [Bb] love and I [C] shall die [F] of sorrow
They buried him there in the old churchyard, they buried her beside him
And on his grave grew a red, red row [Bb] and [C] on her [F] grave a briar
They grew and they grew up the old church town till they could not grow any higher
They leaped and they tied and the true lovers knot the [C] rows around [Bm] the [F] briar
