My Dear Companion

	  		
Chorus 
C                           F 
Oh have you seen my dear companion 
           C                  G 
For he was all this world to me 
            C                F 
I hear he's gone to some far country 
             C       G        C 
And that he cares no more for me 

Verse 
         F              C 
I wish I were a swallow flying 
             C                 G 
I'd fly to a high and lonesome place 
             C                   F 
I'd join the wild birds in their crying 
            C    G             C 
Thinking of you and your sweet face

Chorus 
C                           F 
Oh have you seen my dear companion 
           C                 G 
For he was all this world to me 
            C                    F 
But now the stars have turned against me 
       C        G        C 
And he cares no more for me 

Verse 
             F             C 
Oh when the dark is on the mountain 
            C                 G 
And all the world has gone to sleep 
          C                     F 
I will go down to the cold dark waters 
               C      G        C 
And there I'll lay me down and weep

Oh have you seen my dear companion 
            F               C 
Oh have you seen my dear companion 
            F                C 
Oh have you seen my dear companion 
           C       G         C 
For he was all this world to me
