Roger Mcguinn Silver Dagger lyrics
Silver Dagger lyrics by Roger Mcguinn
I won't [A] sing love songs, I'll wake your [D] mother
She's sleeping [A] there, right by your [Bm] side
And in her [G] right hand is a sliver [Em] dagger
She says that [G] you can never be my [A] bride
All men are false, so says your mother
They tell you wicked, loving lies
The very next evening, they'll court another
Leave you alone to pine and sigh
Your daddy is a handsome wrangler
He's got a chain five miles long
From every link a heart does dangle
Of some fair maid he's loved and wronged
I'll court another tender maiden
And hope that she will be my wife
For you've been warned and you've decided
To sleep alone all of your life
