_ sat within a valley green I sat there with my true love
_ [Bm]
My heart [B] strove to choose between [Bm] The old [B] love and the new love
_ The old who heard, the new who told Me, [G] think on [B] no end _ dearly
_ [Bm] While soft [B] the wind blew down the vale And shook the golden barley
_ It _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
was hard the mournful words to frame To break the ties that bound us
But still harder to tell the shame Of foreign chains around us
And so I said, [B] the mountain glen [G] I'll seek in mourning [F#m] lovely
_ [Bm] And join [A] the brave [Bm] united man When soft wind [B] blows the barley
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ It was sad I kissed away [B] her tears Her arms around me [Bm] clinging
When to my ears that fateful shot Came out the wildwood ringing _
The bullet pierced my true love's breast [G] In life's pure [F#m] spring so awfully
[Bm] And there upon my breast she died While soft wind [B] shook the [Bm] barley _ _ _ _ _
[F#m] _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _

[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I pulled her to some mountain stream _ Under many's the summer blossom _
[Bm] I placed with branches [B] soft and green [Bm]
About her [B] gore stained bosom
_ [Bm] I wept and kissed her clay cold corpse Then rushed o'er the hill and valley
My vengeance was the hold to back While soft [B] wind blew the barley
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Twas blood for blood without remorse I took at Woolout Harlow
I placed [B] my true [Bm] love's clay cold corpse Where mine soon full shall follow
_ Around her [B] grave I [Bm] wandered here Noon, night and morning [F#] _
_ _ _ _ [Bm] with aching heart
When dare I [B] hear _ the wind that shakes _ the barley _ _ _ _ _ _ _
