G                          C
Come sit by my side little darling
     D                        G
Come lay your cool hand on my brow
                         C
Promise me that you will never
   D                    G
Be nobody's darling but mine


                     C
Nobody's darling but mine love
   D                       G
Be honest, be faithful, be kind
                         C
Promise me that you will never
   D                    G
Be nobody's carling but mine


                                   C
You're as sweet as the flowers of springtime
          D                         G
You're as pure as the dew from the rose
                          C
I'd rather be somebody's darling
       D                    G
That a poor boy that nobody knows



My mother is dead and in heaven
My daddy has gone down below
Sister has gone to meet mother
And where I'll go nobody knows



Goodbye, goodbye little darling
I'm leaving this cold world behind
Promise me that you will never
Be nobody's darling but mine
