  26 G           D7                        G
  27 Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother,
  28                D                Em
  29 she's sleeping here right by my side.
  30            C                   Am
  31 And in her right hand a silver dagger
  32               Em      G       D
  33 she says that I can't be your bride.
  34
  35 All men are false, says my mother,
  36 they'll tell you wicked, lovin' lies.
  37 The very next evening they'll court another,
  38 leave you alone to pine and sigh.
  39
  40 My daddy is - a handsome devil,
  41 he's got a chain, five miles long.
  42 And on every link a heart does dangle
  43 of another maid he's loved and wronged.
  44
  45 Go court another tender maiden,
  46 and hope that she will be your wife.
  47 For I've been warned, and I've decided
  48 to sleep alone all of my life.
