Karliene - Unconstant Lover
CAPO: 1st Fret
[Verse 1]
N.C.
Oh, it's meetings a pleasure and it's parting a grieve
And an unconstant lover is worse not a thief
For the thief he will rob you and just steal what you have
But an unconstant lover will follow you to your grave
[Chorus]
N.C.
Oh, they'll buy you fine trinkets, fine garments and flowers
And they'll call in at tea-time to pay their devours
They'll swear that they love you by the light of the moon
And propose marriage? No, sherry cobblers at Taylor's Saloon
[Verse 2]
G D G
But when you are married, look out for your hub
D
'Cause evenings you spend at the old fellows' club
Em C
At the officer's store he was kept, he'll pretend
G D G
And so he was too, drinking rum with a friend
[Chorus]
G C
Oh, they'll buy you fine trinkets, fine garments and flowers
G D
And they'll call in at tea-time to pay their devours
Em C
They'll swear that they love you by the light of the moon
G D G
And propose marriage? No, sherry cobblers at Taylor's Saloon
[Verse 3]
G D G
But fortunes are false and a fickle young day
D
And it's worse than bad luck for to die an old maid
Em C
And the best of all blessings we can meet in this life
G D G
Is a kind, loving husband and a good-tempered wife
Em C
The best of all blessings we can meet in this life
G D G
Is a kind, loving husband and a good-tempered wife
