Simak lirik dan chord lagu "Silver Dagger" versi Joan Baez:
A D
Don't sing love songs, you'll wake my mother
A Bm
She's sleeping here right by my side
G Em
And in her right hand, a silver dagger
Bm G A
She says that I can't be your bride
A D
All men are false, says my mother
A Bm
They'll tell you wicked, loving lies
G Em
The very next evening, they'll court another
Bm G A
Leave you alone to pine and sigh
A D
My daddy is a handsome devil
A Bm
He's got a chain five miles long
G Em
And on every link, a heart does dangle
Bm G A
Of another maid he's loved and wronged
A D
Go court another tender maiden
A Bm
And hope that she will be your wife
G Em
For I've been warned and I've decided
Bm G A
To sleep alone all of my life
