Please meet me tonight in [A] the moonlight
Oh, please [B] meet me tonight [E] all alone
For I have a sad [E] story [A] to tell you
It's a [B] story that's never been told
I'll be moved to a new jail [A] tomorrow
[B] I'll be leaving my [E] darling alone
With these cold prison bars [A] all around me
I lay my [B]
head on a pillow [E] of stone
So please meet me tonight here in the moonlight
Oh, [B] please meet me tonight [E] all alone
[E] For I have a sad story to [A] tell you
It's a [B] story that's never been [E] told

Now I have a fine ship on [A] the ocean
And [B] she's laden with [E] silver and gold
