Brendan Gleeson – The Unfortunate Lad chords

(The Ballad Of Buster Scruggs Soundtrack)

[Verse 1]
   D        G       Bm          AAs I was a walking down by the loch
   G        D           Bm         AAs I was a walking one morning of late
  D            G        Bm        AWho should I spy but my own dear comrade?
  D             G          Bm          DWrapped up in flannel, so hard is his fate

[Verse 2]
   D             G          Bm        AI boldly stepped up to and kindly did ask him
  G           D             Bm         AWhy are you wrapped up in flannel so white?
    D      G            Bm      AMy body is injured and sadly disordered
     D          G        Bm             DAll by a young woman, my own heart's delight

[Bridge]
    D           G        A         AOh had she but told me when she disordered me
 D           Bm                   A   AHad she but told me of it at the time
   D              G        Bm             AI might have got salts or pills of white mercury
     D           G           Bm            DBut now I'm cut down in the height of my prime

[Verse 3]
     D          G          Bm       AGet six pretty maidens to carry my coffin
     G          D          Bm         AAnd six pretty maidens to bear up my pall
     D      G             Bm         AAnd give to each of them bunches of roses
       D            G           Bm    A  DThat they may not smell me as they go a-long
