Gentle Mother

Intro: G-Em-Am-D-D7-G-C-G

G	G7	D	D7	G
By the side	of the	clear	crystal	fountain

	Em	Am	D	D7
There	stands a	lonely	church yard closely	by

	G	G7	D	D7	G
There's a	tombstone	decor	ated	with prim	roses

	Em	Am	D	D7	G
In the	memory	of a	loved one	passed a	way

D	D7	G
Shall I ne'er see a	more gentle	mother

	Em	Am	D	D7
In the	fields	where the	wild flowers	grow

	G	G7	D	D7	G
I am	sorry	for the	loss I	can't re	cover

	Em	Am	D	D7	G
Neath yon	willow	lies my	gentle	mother's	love

G	G7	D	D7	G
Some children	take a	liking	to their	parents

	Em	Am	D	D7
While some	others	fill their	mothers hearts with	pain

	G	G7	D	D7	G
But some	day they	will be	sorry	for their	blindness

	Em	Am	D	D7	G
When the	crying	will not	bring her	back a	gain

D	D7	G
Shall I ne'er see a	more gentle	mother

	Em	Am	D
In the	fields	where the	wild flowers

D7	G	G7	D	D7	G
grow I am	sorry	for the	loss I	can't re	cover

	Em	Am	D	D7	G
Neath yon	willow	lies my	gentle	mother's	love

	Em	Am	D	D7	G
Neath yon	willow	lies my	gentle	mother's	love-C-G
