        D                                       A      D
    My love stood under a walnut tree over the garden wall,
                                                          A     D
    she whispered and said she'd be true to me, over the garden wall.
             A
    She has beautiful eyes and beautiful hair,
                                             D
    she's not very tall, so she stood in a chair,
     G                            D              A      D
    many a time I've kissed her there, over the garden wall.

 D               A                        A7
Over the garden wall, the sweetest girl of all,
       A                  D                G                          D
there never were yet such eyes of jet, and you can bet I'll never forget
    G                         D             A      D
the night our lips in kisses met, over the garden wall.

             D                                             A      D
    There's always a will, there's always a way, over the garden wall,
                                                           A      D
    there's always the night as well as the day, over the garden wall.
        A
    We hadn't much money, but weddings were cheap,
                                           D
    so while the old feller was snoring asleep,
            G                              D             A     D
    with a lad and ladder she managed to creep over the garden wall.

 D               A                        A7
Over the garden wall, the sweetest girl of all,
       A                  D                G                          D
there never were yet such eyes of jet, and you can bet I'll never forget
    G                         D             A      D
the night our lips in kisses met, over the garden wall.
