Verse 1
An (G major)
American Boy Met An Girl
(C major) An (G major) American boy met an English girl
(D major) Far (C major) out across (G major) the sea
They laughed and loved
in the English way,
their hearts (A major) were filled with glee (D major)
They knew someday (G major)
he must return
(F sharp major) to his (C major) native (F sharp major) family
(G major) And when it came and the owl was nigh,
these words he heard her say
Please don't leave me here (F sharp major) to cry,
(C major) was his sweet arch plea (G major)
Seems so (F sharp major) hard for us (G major) to part
and leave (A major) me here to grieve (D major)
Though (G major) I know you must return
to your (C major) native family (G major)
Tell me that you love me dear
an (F sharp major) d will (G major) re (B minor) turn (D major) someday (G major) (C major) (G major)
(F sharp major) (G major) (A major) (D major) (G major) (F sharp major) (G major) (C major)
(G major)
He (F sharp major) kissed her, then he said goodbye,
(G major) and slowly (C major) walked (G major) away.
He could not bear to see (F sharp major) her cry, (G major)
it filled (A major) his heart with pain. (D major)
(A major) She (F sharp major) prayed and dreamed
of his return,
although (C major) it never came. (G major)
He wed her new (F sharp major) in his (G major) native (F sharp major) land,
but inside these words still ring
(G major) Please (F sharp major) don't leave me
here to (D major) cry, (G major)
watch this sweet (F sharp major) arch flee
(G major) Seems (F sharp major) so hard for us to part
and leave (A major) me here to grieve (D major)
Though I (F sharp major) know you must (F sharp major) return
to your native family
(F sharp major) Tell me that you love me, dear,
and we'll return some day
(G major)
