G Bm
My love left me in April.
A G
When the world was fresh and new;
G Bm
My love left me in the spring time,
A F#
When my heart was young and true.

G Bm
Had he gone from me in the summer
A G
While I was harvesting grain;
G Bm
Had I lost him in the autumn
A G
When my heart was grey as rain;
G D
Had he left me, old, in the winter
A Em
My heart would no less pain-
G Bm
But my love left me in April
D G
And I shan't know love again
