None of them
A D
They stood in the moonlight near by the gate,
E A
, my darling, I know you'll wait."
D
She ceased her weeping and smiled through her tears,
E A
saying," I've been true love through these long years."
A D
For on tomorrow at the break of day,
E A
he was to journey far far away.
D
He held her closer his promised bride,
E A
and to her questions these words replied.
A D
've loved you always, yes, I've been true,
E A
My heart shall never be loveless for you.
D
O darling believe me, far over the sea,
E A
through life or death, so faithful I'll be.
A D
One year passed by, he's coming home,
E A
his pilgrimage over, no longer to roam.
D
And smiling, he thinks of her shining eyes,
E A
shining with welcome, a glad surprise.
A D
A dainty letter he takes from his breast,
E D
And reading once more by the warming light,
E A
these words he had spoken to her that night.
A D
've loved you always, yes, I've been true,
E A
My heart shall never be loveless for you.
D
O darling believe me, far over the sea,
E A
through life or death, so faithful I'll be.
A D
Once more he seeks the old garden gate,
E A
but he arrives alas, alas it's too late.
D
The wedding is over, the knot is tied,
E A
he finds his darling another's bride.
A D
And later they found him there on the grass,
E A
a pistol nearby tells what had passed.
D
A crumpled letter that explained the deed,
E A
and in the pale moonlight these words did read.
A D
've loved you always, yes, I've been true,
E A
My heart shall never be loveless for you.
D
O darling believe me, far over the sea,
E A
through life or death, so faithful I'll be.
