[G]Say weeping green[C] willow will you tell me[G] why
On the spur of the [Em]moment when [A7]I said good[D7] bye
I [G]saw her[C] walking away out of[G] sight
Now I re[Em]gretfully[Am] think of[D7] my[G] wife
[Chorus]
[C]Willow green willow as your[G] branches hang low
You seem to be [Em]sighing for the [A7]sadness I [D7]know
I [G]love her for[C]ever, 'till the day that I[G] die
Untill the green [Em]willow looks[Am7] up to[D7] the [G]sky
All around the city the daytime seems dark
As I watch all the couples walk down through the park
Missed oppertunities never come twice
Darling, I'm longing, I'm paying the price
Today was tomorrow just yesterday
Time goes so slowly now she's gone away
Time must go on, though my heart feels the pain
Perhaps some day soon, she will come back again
