Lily of the Valley
C F C G
Lily of the Valley

[Verse 1]
C G F C
They called her Lily of the Valley and she lived beside the river
F C F G
The youngest of her sisters and the prettiest of them all
C G F C
She was courted by the men in town, she could have married anyone
F C G
The one she made her husband was the handsomest of all

[Verse 2]
C G F C
They were married in a chapel, Lily bore him seven children
F C F G
And every night he put her down and made her feel ashamed
C G F C
He took the face she used to wear and put a look of sorrow there
F C
The more he made her suffer, the more she felt to blame

[Chorus]
F G Am
No more tears Lily, don't cry anymore
Dm7 F G
Tears of yours won't fall another time
F G Am
Don't cry Lilly, we know how you've tried
Dm7 F G
Fighting for your life was not a crime

[Verse 3]
C G F C
One night Lily turned to him, before he raised his hand to her
F C F G
One more time she said, "And not again"
C G F C
He laughed and threw another punch, the blow knocked Lily to the floor
F C G
Somehow she grabbed the kitchen knife and stabbed her husband dead

[Verse 4]
C G F C
The jury they decided it was murder in the first degree
F C F G
They said she had provoked him with her wild and wicked talk
C G F C
They hanged her by the river where so many times she wandered
F C
They left her children motherless, in sorrow and in shock

[Chorus]
F G Am
No more tears Lily, don't cry anymore
Dm7 F G
Tears of yours won't fall another time
F G Am
Don't cry Lilly, we know how you've tried
Dm7 F G
Fighting for your life was not a crime

[Bridge]
Am Em Am Em
A soldier in a uniform is meant to kill the enemy
Am Em F G
But Lilly, in her own defence, was framed to take the fall
Am Em Am Em
Her children watched their father beat their mother all too often
Am Em F G
The battlefields of families are the saddest of them all

[Verse 5]
C G F C
The willow weeps for Lily as its branches touch the water
F C F G
The wind is crying, "Lily", as it sighs along the shore
C G F C
The river's singing, "Lily, we all know that you are innocent
F C
You were promised marriage, but you had to fight a war"

[Chorus]
F G Am
No more tears Lily, don't cry anymore
Dm7 F G
Tears of yours won't fall another time
F G Am
Don't cry Lilly, we know how you tried
Dm7 F G
Fighting for your life was not a crime

[Outro]
