[Verse 1]
G C D G
High atop a lonely moor, a Widow lived alone.
G C
Well, in she kept, and as she slept,
D G
her pillow heard her moan:
C
"Oh, many's the lonely traveller
D
has spent the night with me,
G C
but there's no a man in all creation
D G
gives content to me!


[Verse 2]
G C
"Well, some can manage once or twice,
D G
and some make three or four;
G C
but it seems to me a rarity
D G
is the man who can do more.
C
I'd do anything to find him,
D
in Heaven or in Hell."
G C
And as she spoke these words,well
D G
sure, she heard her front door bell.


[Chorus]
C
And the wind blew cold and lonely
D
across that Widow's moor,
G C
and she never, ever turned away
D G
a traveller from the door.


[Verse 3]
G C
So boldly ran the Widow,
D G
and the door did open wide,
G C
and as she did, a tall and handsome
D G
stranger stepped inside.
C
Well, she gave him bread and brandy,
D
and when that he was fed,
G C
he said, "My dear, now have no fear;
D G
it's time to come to bed.


[Verse 4]
G
"For I've heard your plea
C
right down the lane,
D G
and I've come to see you right.
G C
But you must come to Hell with me
D G
if I can last the night."
C
Well, she said, "You randy Devil!
D
To this bargain I'll agree,
G C
for Hell on Earth, or Hell in Hell,
D G
it's all the same to me!"


[Chorus]
C
And the wind blew cold and lonely
D
across that Widow's moor,
G C
and she never, ever turned away
D G
a traveller from the door.


[Verse 5]
G C
Now, as they tumbled into bed,
D G
the Devil, he proved well...
G C
(and) he thought before the night would end
D G
that she'd be in his Hell.
C
But when they came to number nine,
D
the Widow cried out, "More!"
G C
And when the twelfth time came around,
D G
the Widow cried, "Encore!"


[Verse 6]
G C
At twenty-five the Devil
D G
felt compelled to take a rest,
G
but the Widow cried,
C
"Come raise your head,
D G
and put me to the test!"
C
At sixty-nine, the Widow laughed.
D
"Again! Again!" she cried,
G
and the Devil said,
C D G
"Well, I can see just how your husband died!"


[Chorus]
C
And the wind blew cold and lonely
D
across that Widow's moor,
G C
and she never, ever turned away
D G
a traveller from the door.


[Verse 7]
G C
At ninety-nine, the Devil
D G
he began to wail and weep.
G C
He said, "I'll give you anything,
D G
if you'll let me go to sleep!"
C
But before the morning light was up,
D
the Devil hobbled home,
G C
and the Widow, still not satisfied,
D G
once more was left alone.


[Verse 8]
G C
She lay there on her pillow
D G
and she thought on ninety-nine.
G C
"It's a pity that poor Devil
D G
couldn't manage one more time!
C
I'll call him up again tonight
D
to see what can be done -
G C
with a little more application,
D G
he could've made the Ton !"


[Chorus]
C
And the wind blew cold and lonely
D
across that Widow's moor,
G C
and she never, ever turned away
D G
a traveller from the door.


[Verse 9]
G C
But when she called to him that night,
D G
no Devil did appear.
G C
For the first time in Eternity,
D G
the Devil, he shook with fear.
C
He said, "Of all the torments
D
I've witnessed here in Hell,
G C
I never knew what pain was,
D G
'til I rang your front door bell!"


[Chorus]
C
And the wind blew cold and lonely
D
across that Widow's moor,
G C
and she never, ever turned away
D G
a traveller from the door.

[Chorus]
C
And the wind blew cold and lonely
D
across that Widow's moor,
G C
and she never, ever turned away
D G
a traveller from the door.
