|[4/4]Dm |[2/4]C C/B |[4/4]Am |
Hear me when I cry,listen to my song
|Dm |[2/4]C C/B |[4/4]Am |
If Jay, my lovely lady,to the earth she did belong.
|[4/4]Dm |F |G
I, a country Sir loved her from my life,but the
|Dm/F C/G |G |Dm9
manor lady's bright young son did take her for his wife.

Under forest branches she came to me,
|Dm |[2/4]C C/B |[4/4]Am |
Until the day she cried aloud a father I should be.
[4/4]|Dm |F |G
That was the last time that we met,I never saw her again,for she
|Dm/F C/G |G |Dm9
took her life on Princeton Wharf to save my worthy name.

She found Death's open arms and lay in their embrace
|Dm |[2/4]C C/B |[4/4]Am |
I watched as icy fingers clawed her lovely face. Now I
|Dm |F |G
stumble through the mist to where they laid her in her grave,and
|Dm/F C/G |G |Dm9
daily I'll remember flowers for my Jay.

[Em]Far beyond this land [F]I will take your hand,
