Intro:
Am Am7 repeatedly.
[Am]We met in the spring time when the blossoms unfold
the pastures green and the m[Em]eadow [Am]gold
[Am]Our love was in flower as the summer grown
the love like the leaves have all wi[Em]thered and g[Am]one
[Dm]roses have faded and there's frost at my door
the[Am] bird of the morning won't s[Em]ing any[Am] more
[Dm]the grass in the valley is starting to die
and [Am]out in the darkness the wh[Em]ipper will [Am]cry
a[C]lone and forsaken by [Dm]fate and by man
[Am]oh lord, if you hear me take hold of my hand
where has she gone to, where can she be
sha may have forsaken some other like me
she promised you once to love and obey
each wov a pleading that she threw away
the darkness is falling, the sky turns grey
the hound in the distance has started today
i wonder, i wonder what shes thinking of
forsaken, forgotten, without any love
alone and forsaken by fate and by man
oh lord, if you hear me take hold of my hand
alone and forsaken by fate and by man
oh lord, if you hear me take hold of my hand
alone and forsaken by fate and by man
oh lord, if you hear me take hold of my hand
a place in the sand
