C     G       Am       G     
Down by the Salley Gardens     
F         G       C               
My love and I did meet      
C     G       Am       G                     
She passed the Salley Gardens    
F         G       C                     
With little snow-white feet    
Am     F       G     C                   
She bid me take love easy       
Am     F       G     C                       
As the leaves grow on the tree   
C     G       Am       G                     
But I being young and foolish    
F         G       C                   
With her did not agree       
                      
C     G       Am     G                     
In a field by the river      
F         G       C                     
My love and I did stand        
C     G       Am       G                     
And on my leaning shoulder    
F         G         C                   
She laid her snow-white hand   
Am F         G       C                       
She bid me take life easy      
Am F         G       C                       
As the grass grows on the weirs  
C     G       Am       G                       
But I was young and foolish    
F       G         C                     
And now am full of tears      
                  
                  
C     G       Am       G                     
Down by the Salley Gardens    
F         G       C                   
My love and I did meet       
C     G       Am       G                       
She passed the Salley Gardens   
F         G       C                     
With little snow-white feet    
Am F         G       C                     
She bid me take love easy

As the leaves grow on the tree

And now am full of tears
