G D G C Am
[Verse 1]
D G
Come all you fair and tender ladies
D Em
Take warning how you court young men
D G Bm
They're like a star on a cloudy morning
C G/B Am
First they'll appear and then they're gone
[Verse 2]
D G
They'll tell to you some loving story
D Em
They'll swear to you their love is true
D G Bm
Straightway they'll go and court another
C G/B Am
And that's the love they had for you
[Verse 3]
D G
Oh, don't you remember our days of courting?
D Em
You told me that you love me the best
D G Bm
You could make me believe by the fall of your eyes
C G/B Am
That the sun rose in the west
[Verse 4]
D G
If I had known before I courted
D Em
That love was such a killing thing
D G Bm
I'd lock my heart in a box of golden
C G/B Am
And fasten it with a silvery pin
[Verse 5]
D G
Come all you fair and tender ladies
D Em
Take warning how you court young men
D G Bm
They're like a star on a cloudy morning
C G/B Am
First they'll appear and then they're gone
