LOVE IS PLEASING
3/4
G Bm D7
I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,
C G
I wish I was a youth again.
Bm D
But a youth again I can never be,
C G
Till apples grow on an ivy tree.
G Bm D7
I left me father, I left me mother,
C G
I left all my sisters and brothers too,
Bm D
I left all my friends and me own religion,
C G
I left them all for to follow you.
G Bm D7
Oh love is pleasin' and love is teasin',
C G
And love is a pleasure when first it's new.
Bm D
But as it grows older sure the love grows colder,
C G
And it fades away like the morning dew.
G Bm D7
But the sweetest apple is the soonest rotten,
C G
And the hottest love is the soonest cold,
Bm D
And what can't be cured love must be endur-ed love,
C G
But my own true love I will n'er more behold.
G Bm D7
For love and porter makes a young man older,
C G
And love and whiskey makes him old and grey,
Bm D
And what can't be cured love must be endur-ed love,
C G
And now I am bound for A-meri-cay.
G Bm D7
Oh love is pleasin' and love is teasin',
C G
And love is a pleasure when first it's new,
Bm D
But as it grows older sure the love grows colder,
C G
And it fades away like the morning dew.
