Bury Me Under the Weeping Willow Lyrics

Bury Me Under The Weeping Willow chords
Rosanne Cash (traditional, first recorded by Henry Whitter in 1923)
Capo I
Well my heart is sad and I am lonesome
For the only one I love
When shall I see him, oh, no never
till we meet in heaven above
Oh bury me beneath the willow
Under the weeping willow tree
So that he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll weep for me
They told me that he did not love me
I could not believe it was true
Until an angel softly whispered
He has proven untrue to you
Oh bury me beneath the willow
Under the weeping willow tree
So that he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll weep for me
Tomorrow was our wedding day
But oh Lord, Lord where is he?
He's gone to see him another bride
And cares no more for me
Oh bury me beneath the willow
Under the weeping willow tree
So that he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he'll weep for me
And perhaps he'll weep for me
