G7 C
[Verse 1]
C
They stood in the moonlight
F
out there by the gate
G7
\"Goodbye, little darling,
C
I know you will wait\"
C
She ceased her weeping and
F
smiled through her tears
G7
Saying, \"I\'ll be true, love,
C
for all these long years\"
[Chorus]
C
I\'ve loved you always,
F
oh yes, I\'ve been true

My heart won\'t ever
C
cease longing for you
C
Believe me, little darling,
F
o\'er land or sea
G7
Through life or death,
C
so faithful I\'ll be
[Verse 2]
C
One year had passed by,
F
and returning home
G7
His pilgrimage over,
C
no never to roam
C
He once again seeks
F
the old garden gate
G7
But he seeks, alas, alas,
C
it\'s too late
C
The wedding is over,
F
the knot has been tied
G7
He finds his darling
C
another man\'s bride
[Chorus]
C
I\'ve loved you always,
F
oh yes, I\'ve been true
G7
My heart won\'t ever
C
cease longing for you
C
Believe me, little darling,
F
o\'er land or sea
G7
Through life or death,
C
so faithful I\'ll be

[Verse 4]
C
Next morning, they found
F
him laying there in the grass
G7
A pistol nearby,
C
it told what had passed
C
A prompting letter
F
that told of the deed
G7
And in the pale moonlight,
C
these words you could read
[Chorus]
C
I\'ve loved you always,
F
oh yes, I\'ve been true
G7
My heart won\'t ever
C
cease longing for you
C
Believe me, little darling,
F
o\'er land or sea
G7
Through life or death,
C
so faithful I\'ll be
