Key: F major
Verse 1
For seven long years and more
Among the bold commanders
Where the thundering cannons roar
I've conquered all my enemies
Both on the land and sea
It is my dearest duel,
Em
D
your beauty has conquered me.
Don't you remember Queen Ellen,
all in her flowery reign?
As she walked out of her paradise
to cleanse the golden chain?
Her beauty and behavior
none with her could compare
But you, my dearest darling,
Em
D
art more divinely fair
I wish I were a turtle dove
just rising from my nest
I'd sing so sweet in the morning,
with the dew all on my breast.
So sweet would be the music,
so sad would be the tune.
I'd sing so clear in the morning,
Em
G
D
in the beautiful month of June.
If I could build a ship, my love,
without the wood of tree,
that ship would break asunder.
If I prove false to thee,
if I prove false to thee, my love,
the elements will turn.
The fire will freeze to ice,
my love,
and the raging seas will burn.
