I am stretched on your grave and I'll lie here forever
If your hands were in mine I'd be sure they would not sever
My apple tree, my brightness, it's time we were together
For I smell of the earth and I'm worn by the weather
When my family think that I'm safely in my bed
Oh, from morning [A] till night I am [Bb] stretched out at [D] your head
[A] Calling out unto the earth with [N] tears hot and wild
For the loss of a girl that I loved [Db] as a [E] child
[Ab] Do you remember the night, oh the night when we were lost
And the shade of the [A] black thorn [D] and the torch of the frost
[N] Oh, thanks be to Jesus we did [Ab] all that was right
[Eb] And your [Ab] maidenhead [Abm] still is your pillar [Ab] of [A] light
Oh, the beasts and the fliers they broach [Am] me in dread
[G] Oh, [A] for I love you still all my life and you're dead
I still will be your [Am] shelter through rain and through storm
And with you in your cold [A] grave I cannot sleep, oh
So I am stretched on your grave and I'll lie here forever
If your hands were in mine I'd be sure they would not sever
My apple tree, [D] my brightness, it's time we were together
[G] For [Am] I smell of the [A] earth and I'm worn by the weather
If your hands were in mine I'd be sure they would not sever
My apple tree, my brightness, it's time we were together
For I smell of the earth and I'm worn by the weather
When my family think that I'm safely in my bed
Oh, from morning [A] till night I am [Bb] stretched out at [D] your head
[A] Calling out unto the earth with [N] tears hot and wild
For the loss of a girl that I loved [Db] as a [E] child
[Ab] Do you remember the night, oh the night when we were lost
And the shade of the [A] black thorn [D] and the torch of the frost
[N] Oh, thanks be to Jesus we did [Ab] all that was right
[Eb] And your [Ab] maidenhead [Abm] still is your pillar [Ab] of [A] light
Oh, the beasts and the fliers they broach [Am] me in dread
[G] Oh, [A] for I love you still all my life and you're dead
I still will be your [Am] shelter through rain and through storm
And with you in your cold [A] grave I cannot sleep, oh
So I am stretched on your grave and I'll lie here forever
If your hands were in mine I'd be sure they would not sever
My apple tree, [D] my brightness, it's time we were together
[G] For [Am] I smell of the [A] earth and I'm worn by the weather
