Chords in this song
Strum
D-DU-UDU
Hearken to me both high and low
I`ll sing for you a song
Of Kngs and Queens and rose-lipped maidens
Courting light foot lads
Now love is grand when love is new
The heart blood it runs stong
There`s nothing a doting lad won`t do
To keep his princess warm
He`ll tease her with poems and promises
He`ll ask her out to dance
He`ll cajole and he`ll beg and he`ll always win
In bitter-sweat romance
For time it comes and time it goes
It makes the strongest tree to bend
Kings and Queens have no defence
Time brings all things to an end
But he goes out with his drinken pals
His eyes bagan to rove
He forgets all about the brown-eyed beauty
Who now sits home alone
There`s no more walks down lover`s lane
There`s no more wine in the sun
All that`s left is a hollow pain
Time alas you`ve won
While the violin and flute solos, you play :
Now all who wish for love to stay
And last your whole life through
Keep ahead of time me boys
And never be untrue
