Verse 1
G
As I was a -walkin',
C
G
I passed by a window
D
And saw an old woman,
G
the picture of gloom
And this is the song
C
G
the old lady was hummin'
D
As backward and forward
G
she wielded her broom
B
Oh, life is a toil and love is a trouble
Em
D
Beauty will fade and riches will flee
G
Pleasures they dwindle
C
G
and prices they double
D
And nothing is what we could
G
wish it to be
There's too much of sewing
C
G
goes into a bonnet
D
There's too much of ironing
G
goes into a shirt
There's nothing worth all of
C
G
the time you waste on it
D
And nothing that lasts us
G
but rubble and dirt
Pull weeds all the summer,
C
G
rake leaves in September
D
The midsummer breezes
G
are loaded with dust
It's snow all the winter and
C
G
rain in November
D
The wallpaper rots and the
G
candlestick rusts
B
Oh, life is a toil and love is a trouble
Em
D
Beauty will fade and riches will flee
G
Pleasures they dwindle
C
G
and prices they double
D
And nothing is what we
G
D
G
could wish it to be
The old woman grew tired
C
G
of sweeping and scrubbing
D
She lay down and died
G
and I thought was it just
That she who so long
C
G
had wielded the duster
D
Should herself in the end
G
be turned into dust
B
Oh, life is a toil and love is a trouble
Em
Beauty will fade and
D
riches will flee
G
Pleasures they dwindle
C
G
and prizes they double
D
G
And nothing is what we could wish it to be
