Gm               F      Gm
Go son, go down to the water
Gm                 F       Gm
And see the women weeping there
Gm            F      Gm
Then go up into the mountains
Gm                 F       Gm
The men, they are weeping too
Gm                       F     Gm
Father, why are all the women weeping?
Gm                    F         Gm
They are all weeping for their men
Gm                    F         Gm
Then why are all the men there weeping?
Gm                F        Gm
They are weeping back at them

Chorus:
F         Gm
This is a weeping song
   F                Gm
A song in which to weep
               F             Gm
While all the men and women sleep
F         Gm
This is a weeping song
       F                Gm
But I won't be weeping long

Father, why are all the children weeping?
They are merely crying son
Oh, are they merely crying, father?
Yes, true weeping is yet... to come

Chorus:
This is a weeping song
A song in which to weep
While all the little children sleep
This is a weeping song
But I won't be weeping long

Oh father, tell me, are you weeping?
Your face seems it's wet to touch
Oh, then I'm so sorry, father
I never thought I'd hurt you so much

Chorus:
This is a weeping song
A song in which to weep
While we rock ourselves to sleep
This is a weeping song
But I won't be weeping long
No, I won't be weeping long
No, I won't be weeping long
No, I won't... be weeping long
