A Maid In Bedlam Chords & Tabs
Dm Am Dm Am Dm
Abroad as I was walking one evening in the spring
Am Em Dm
I heard a maid in Bedlam so sweetly for to sing
Am
Her chains she rattled on her hands
dm em (or am, depending on how you feel like singing that note)
And thus replied she,
Dm Am Em Dm Am Dm
“I love my love because I know my love loves me”
Dm Am Dm Am Dm
Oh cruel were his parents who sent my love to sea
Am Em Dm
And cruel was the sailing ship that bore my love from me
Am
Yet I love his parents since they're his
Dm Em
Although they've ruined me
Dm Am Em Dm Am Dm
I love my love because I know my love loves me
