Not a very happy song !! Ralph Stanley Song : The Water Lily Capo 2 D G D A lonely young wife in her dreaming discerns A A lily decked pool with a border of ferns D G D And a beautiful child with butterfly wings A D Drifts down to the edge of the water and sings (CHORUS) D G D Come mama, come, quick follow me A D Step out on the leaves of the water lily D G D And the lonely young wife, her heart beating wild A Cries wait till I come, till I reach you my child D G D But the beautiful child with butterfly wings A D Steps out on the leaves of the lily and sings (REPEAT CHORUS) Instrumental:D-G-D-A-D-G-D-A-D D G D And the wife in her dreaming steps out on the stream A But the lily leaves sink and she wakes from her dream D G D Oh the waking is sad, for the tears that it brings A D And she knows its her dead baby's spirit that sings (REPEAT CHORUS X2)
