Down in the willow garden 
      A                  F#m 
Where me and my love did meet 
A                F#m 
As we sat a-courtin' 
   A         E      A 
My love fell off to sleep 
  F#m             A        F#m 
I had a bottle of Burgundy wine 
   A                F#m 
My love she did not know 
A                              F#m 
So I poisoned that dear little girl 
A      E     F#m 
On the banks below

I drew a sabre through her 
   A            F#m 
It was a bloody knife 
  A                  F#m 
I threw her in the river 
      A     E        A 
Which was a dreadful sign

My father often told me 
     A                  F#m 
That money would set me free 
   A                               F#m 
If I would murder that dear little girl 
      A        E    A 
Whose name was Rose Connelly

   A                        F#m 
My father sits at his cabin door 
A                      F#m 
Wiping his tear-dimmed eyes 
        A                   F#m 
For his only son soon shall walk 
   A      E        A 
To yonder scaffold high 
   F#m             A        F#m 
My race is run, beneath the sun 
    A                 F#m 
The scaffold waits for me 
    A                             F#m 
For I did murder that dear little girl 
      A        E         F#m 
Whose name was Rose Connelly
