Dock Boggs - Lost Love Blues Chords

C                       C7
I lost you darling true love,
F                   C
And now I'm growing old;
C                        C7
My pockets are all empty,
G6      G7         C
Of both silver and gold.

C              C7
While my money lasted,
F                 C
You gave my heart ease;
C                        C7
But since I have nothing,
G6        G7      C
You court who you please.

C                     C7
I am heart broken and lonely,
F                    C
No one can take your place;
C                           C7
Everywhere I chance to look,
G6             G7      C
I can see your smiling face.
                            
C                   C7   
Darling, Oh darling sweetheart,
F                    C
Your name I'll never tell;
C                                   C7
If you don't change your cruel ways,
G6         G7         C
My soul is doomed for hell.

C                    C7
Don't shed a tear my darling,
F                    C
As the daisy o'er me grows;
C                               C7
Just decorate my lonesome grave,
G6       G7             C
With the withered faded rose. 

C                  C7
If I had a pass to glory,
F                       C
And it did not read for two;
C                                   C7
I'd trade it off for your true love,
G6          G7         C
And stay on earth with you.

C                         C7
Your eyes they shine like diamonds,
F                        C
Your cheeks are like the rose;
C                               C7
The way I love you darling girl,
G6           G7     C
Great God in heaven knows.
 
C                        C7
Lost love, lost love, my darling,
F                    C
How can you treat me so;
C                            C7
To leave your own true lover,
G6         G7        C
And with a false one go.

C                        C7
Many times over you I've pondered,
F                         C
Happy hours with you I've spent;
C                             C7
You have won my heart forever,
G6         G7           C
While your own was only lent.

C                    C7
There'll come a time darling,
F                        C
In just a few short more days;
C                               C7
You'll hang your head in sorrow,
G6       G7          C
As I'm lowered in my grave.

C                   C7
Keep all the little tokens,
F                C
I have so fondly gave;
C                                C7
Just grant to me my last request,
G6        G7               C
Take them with you to your grave.
