The Blackest Crow waltz

I first heard that in the video by Bruce Molsky and Julie Fowlis. I had to share with you immediately.

Great old song!

here’s a version of the abc’s with the chords and lyrics…

W:As time draws near my dearest dear when you and I must part
W:How little you know of the grace and awe of my poor aching heart
W:Each night I suffer for your sake , you’re the girl I love so dear
W:I wish that I was going with you or you were staying here
W:
W:The blackest crow that ever flew would surely turn to white
W:If ever I prove false to you bright day will turn to night
W:Bright day will turn to night my love, the elements will mourn C
W:If ever I prove false to you the seas will rage and burn
W:
W:And when you’re on some distant shore think of your absent friend
W:And when the wind blows high and fierce a light to me pray send
W:And when the wind blows high and clear pray send your love to me
W:That I might know by your hand writ, how time has gone with thee

I just put the abc above into Musescore. It translates the tune but doesn’t do the lyrics. Is there a trick here or is it just not possible?
