(Played mostly palm muted again)
[Verse]
D G
It being the springtime of the year
D G
The flowers were freshly blooming
D G
A young man from my home country
A D
Fell in love with Barbara Allen
D G
This young man took sick and went to bed
D G
And he called out for Barbara Allen
D G
She came to him and softly said:
A D
Young man I think you are dying
D G
I am not dying! the young man said
D G
One kiss from you would cure me
D G
One kiss from me you'll never see
A D
Though I thought that you're heart was breaking
D G
Or do you not remember last Sunday night
D G
Out in the ballroom dancing
D G
You danced all night with the village bride
A D
and slighted Barbara Allen

[Verse]
D G
He went and called a serving maid
D G
but she was slow in coming
D G
There’s a watch & chain in the window there
A D
Give them to Barbara Allen
D G
She’d not been gone to very far
D G
When she heard that church bell tolling
D G
Each toll that the bells did make
A D
Rang out for Barbara Allen
D G
She’d not covered a mile or two
D G
When she saw that Funeral Coming
D G
Lay down lay down the corpse she cried
A D
So I may gaze upon him
D G
They laid that down corpse down in the ground,
D G
There she fell lamenting
D G
Oh why, oh why a young man cried
A D
Can this be Barbara Allen?

[Verse]
D G
She ran back to her father’s gate.
D G
There she stopped lamenting
D G
Oh Father Father dig my grave,
A D
Dig it deep and narrow,
D G
A young man died for me today,
A D
I’ll die for him tomorrow,

[Verse]
D G
They both were buried in the old church yard
D G
but she was buried higher
D G
From her grave a red rose grew,
A D G D
From his grave a briar ?
