Verse 1
(D major) (C major) (D major) (G major) (D major) (G major) When I was a
bachelor I lived (C major) all alone
I (D major) worked at the weaver's trade (G major)
And the only, only thing that I
did (C major) that was wrong
(D major) Was to woo a fair young maid (G major)
I (D major) wooed
Verse 2
her in the (G major) winter time (A major)
(D major) Part of the summer (G major) too
And the only, only thing that (C major) I did
that was wrong (A major)
Was to keep her (D major) from the foggy,
foggy (G major) dew

Verse 3
One night she knelt close by my (C major) side
(D major) When I was fast (G major) asleep
She threw her arms around (C major) my neck
(D major) And then began to weep (G major)
She (D major) wept,
Verse 4
she cried, she (G major) tore her hair
(D major) Ah, me, what could I (G major) do?
So all night long, I (C major) held her in my (A major) arms
Just (D major) to keep her from the foggy,
foggy (G major) dew
Verse 5
(G major) Again I am a bachelor, (C major) I live with my son
(D major) We work at the weaver's
(G major) trade
And every single time that
I (C major) look into his eyes
(D major) He reminds me of that fair young (G major) maid
(D major) He reminds
Verse 6
me of (G major) the wintertime (A major)
(D major) Part of the summer (G major) too
And of the many,
many times that I held (C major) her in (A major) my arms
(D major) Just to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew (G major)
