Tom: E
A E A E
Down in the valley, the first of May
F#m C#m A E
Gatherin' flowers, both fresh and gay
A E A E
Gatherin' flowers, both red and blue
F#m C#m A E
I little thought of what, what love could do
[Chorus]
A E A E
Don't yooooou
F#m C#m A E
Break my heart
A E A E
Don't yooooou
F#m C#m A E
Break my heart
[Verse 2]
A E A E
I put my hand in, into the bush
F#m C#m A E
Findin' the sweetest, sweetest rose to pull
A E A E
I pricked my finger, deep to the line
F#m C#m A E
And left the sweetest rose, sweetest rose behind
[Chorus]
A E A E
Don't yooooou
F#m C#m A E
Break my heart
A E A E
Don't yooooou
F#m C#m Asus2 E
Break my heart
[Break]
|A |E |A |E |
|F#m |C#m |A |E |
|A |E |A |E |
|F#m |C#m |A |E |
[Verse 3]
A E A E
Saw a ship sailin', on the big blue sea
F#m C#m A E
She sailed as deep as, deep as she could be
A E A E
But not so deep in, in love as I am
F#m C#m A E
I care not whether I, I sink or swim
[Chorus]
A E A E
Don't yooooou
F#m C#m A E
Break my heart
A E A E
Don't yooooou
F#m C#m A E
Break my heart
[Chorus]
A E A E
Don't yooooou
F#m C#m A E
Break my heart
A E A E
Don't yooooou
F#m C#m A E
break my heart
[Outro]
A E A E
Thousands and thousands, all on this Earth
