Big Tom And The Mainliners Lyrics And Chords

​
By the side of the clear crystal fountain
There stands a lonely church yard closely by
There's a tombstone decorated with primroses
In the memory of a loved one passed away

Shall I ne’er see a more gentle mother
In the fields where the wild flowers grow
I am sorry for the loss I can't recover
Neath yon willow lies my gentle mother’s love

Some children take a liking [to their parents
While some others fill their mothers hearts with pain
But some day they will be sorry for their blindness
When the crying will not bring her back again
