The Little Sparrow
(Fair and Tender ladies)

*capo 1st fret
(CHORUS)
(G)
Come all ye fair and tender ladies
(D)
take warning how, you court young men.
(Am) (G)
They`re like a star, on a summer morning
(Am) (D)
they first appear, and then they`re gone.
They`ll tell to you, some loving story
And they make you think, that they love you well.
Then away they`ll go, and court some other
and leave you there, in grief to dwell.
I wish I was, a little sparrow
and had wings to fly so high
I`d fly away, to my false true lover
and when she`d ask, I would deny.
Oh love is handsome, love is charming
love is pretty, while its new.
But love grows old, as love grows older
and fades away, like morning dew.
