G                     C
Down in the willow garden
      G                       Em
Where me and my true love did meet
G                          C
It was there we went a courting
G            D      G
My love fell off to sleep
C                 G        C
I had a bottle of burgundy wine
G                        Em
My true love she did not know
G                                        C
It was there I murdered that dear little girl 
G           D       G
Down on the banks below


G                       C
I drew my saber through her
   G            Em   
It was a bloody knife
G                      C
I threw her into the river
G         D     G
It was an awful sight
C               G       C
My father often told me son
     G                  Em
That money would set me free
G                                  C
If I'd but murder that dear little girl 
G              D         G
Who's name was Rose Connely

G                            C
Now he stands at his cabin door
  G                    Em
Wiping his tear dimmed eye
G                      C
Gazing on his own dear son 
G        D        G
Upon the scaffold high
C                G         C
My race is run beneath the sun 
    G                    Em
The devil is waiting for me
G                                  C
For I did murder that dear little girl 
G              D         G
Who's name was Rose Connely
