Verse:
                   G     F  C       F    C   G     C
It was down by the Sally Gardens my love and I did meet
                  G     F  C         F  C   G          C
She passed by the Sally Gardens with little snow-white feet
G   Am        F         G C          F      C    G      Am  F  C
She bid me to take life easy, as the leaves grow on the tree__
          G         F   C            F   C     G    C
But I was young and foolish and with her I did not agree

Verse:
                G      F C      F    C   G     C
In a field down by the river my love and I did stand
          G       F    C       F    C   G          C
And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand
G   Am        F         G C          F    C     G      Am  F  C
She bid me to take life easy as the grass grows on the weir__
          G         F   C       F   C    G       C
But I was young and foolish and now I am full of tears
