CFC
Out in the heather where the sun burns bright
GFC
she swore she'd love me the rest of her life
CFC
But, my hands they shook as the noon bells chimed
GFC
so at the last bell I showed her my knife
FC
And I laid to rest my beautiful bride
GDm
out in the heather where the sun burns bright
FC
And I laid to rest my beautiful bride
GFC
out in the heather where the sun burns bright

CFC
Now all alone under the cool night sky
GFC
where locusts scream and white moths fly
CFC
silvery moonbeams fall on her grave
GFC
but twisting black vines have covered her name
FC
For I loved too much my beautiful bride
GDm
and so gave her up to the cool night sky
FC
For I loved too much my beautiful bride
GFC
and so gave her up to the cool night sky
