Down by the Sally Gardens my love and I did meet
                  G     F  C         F      G          C
She passed by the Sally Gardens with little snow-white feet
    Am        F         G C          F           G      Am
She bid me to take life easy, as the leaves grow on the tree__

But I being young and foolish, with her did not agree


[Verse 2]
                G      F C      F        G     C
In a field down by the river my love and I did stand
          G       F    C       F        G          C
And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand
    Am     F         G C         F           G      Am
She bid me take life easy as the grass grows on the weir__
    C     G         F   C       F        G       C
But I was young and foolish and now I am full of tears
