Just one [D]year ago [A]today love
I [A7]became your happy [D]bride
Changed a [D7]mansion for a [G]cottage
To [A]live by the river [D]side
You [D]told me I'd be [A]happy
But no [A7]happiness I [D]see
For [D7]tonight I am a [G]widow
In the [A]cottage by the [D]sea
All [D]alone by the seaside he [A]left me
And no [A7]other's bride [D]I'll be
For in [D7]bridal flowers he [G]begged me
In the [A]cottage by the [D]sea
+ instrumental = CHORUS
From my cottage by the seaside
I can see my mansion home
I can see those hills and valleys
Where with pleasure I have roamed
The last time that I saw him
Oh how happy then were we
But tonight I am a widow
In the cottage by the sea
+ D - G - A - D + repeat CHORUS
