BURY ME UNDER THE WEEPING WILLOW (A.P., Maybelle & Sara Carter) Performed by Natalie Merchant on "The House Carpenter's Daughter") Chorded by Izzylou Capo 2 Well, my heart is sad And I am lonesome For the only one I love When shall we meet? Oh, no never Till we meet in heaven above Bury me underneath the willow Under the weeping willow tree So that he may know Where I am sleeping And perhaps he'll weep for me Well, he told me that He dearly loved me Oh, how could it be untrue? Until the angels softly whispered, "He'll prove untrue to you" Bury me underneath the willow Under the weeping willow tree So that he may know Where I am sleeping And perhaps he'll weep for me Well, tomorrow was to be Our wedding day But oh, my God, where can he be? He's out a courting with another And no longer cares for me Bury me underneath the willow Under the weeping willow tree So that he may know Where I am sleeping And perhaps he'll weep for me
