The night you said until Orion | B |
Should cease to whip the wintry sea | C |
Until the lamb should love the lion | B |
You would you swore be all for me | C |

Some day Ne ra you'll be sorry | C |
No mollycoddle swain am I | D |
I shall not sit and pine by gorry | C |
Because you're with some other guy | D |

No I shall turn my predilection | B |
Upon some truer fairer Jane | E |
And all your prayer and genuflection | E |
For my return shall be in vain | E |

And as for you who choose to sneer O | F |
Though deals in lands and stocks you swing | G |
Though handsome as a movie hero | F |
Though wise you are and everything | G |

Yet when the loss of her you're mourning | G |
How I shall laugh at all your woe | F |
How I'll remind you of this warning | G |
And laugh quot Ha ha I told you so quot | A |
