Verse 1
(A minor) (F major) (G major) (A minor) (G major) As I
(F major) walked out
(G major) one (A minor) evening in Jun (E minor) e
To (G major) (F major) view the (B flat major) fine park sun,
(A minor) the meadows in (G major) blue
I spied a young damsel,
(A minor) she appeared like a (E minor) queen
In (G major) her costly (B flat major) fine robes
and her mantle (G major) so (A minor) green
(G major) I (D minor) stood in amazement,
(G major) I was (A minor) caught by (G major) surprise
(C major) I (F major) thought her (B flat major) an angel,
fell (A minor) down from the skies
(E minor) Her (D minor) eyes like the diamond,
(Gsus4) her (C major) cheeks like the (A minor) rose
(C major) She's (F major) one (B flat major) of the fairest
that nature (G major) com (A minor) posed (G major)
(F major) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (Gsus4)
(G major) Says (F major) I, pretty fair maid,
(G major) would (A minor) you come with me? (E minor)
(F major) We'll join (B flat major) in wedlock and
(A minor) married we'll be
(E minor) I'll (F major) dress you (G major) so richly,
a (A minor) fair like a queen
(E minor) In (F major) a costly fine (B flat major) robes
and a (F major) mantle so (A minor) green (G major)
(Gsus4) She said, (D minor) my young man,
(G major) you be (A minor) st be (G major) ex (C major) cused
For (F major) I'll wed (B flat major) no man
and you (A minor) must be refused
(E minor) The (D minor) green fields are wond (G major) 'red,
the (C major) sun (G major) all in (A minor) blue
For the (F major) land I (B flat major) love best lies in (F major) faint water (D minor) blue (G major) (D minor)
(F major) (A minor) (B flat major) (D minor) (A minor) (G major) (D minor) (G major) (F major)
(A minor) (B flat major) (D minor) (A minor)
(G major) Since (D minor) you will not (F major) marry,
(G major) tell (A minor) your lov (G major) er's (C major) name
I (F major) have been (B flat major) in battle,
I (A minor) might know the same
(E minor) Draw (D minor) near to my (F major) garment,
(Gsus4) and (C major) there you will see
(A minor) It's (F major) lighter and (B flat major) brighter
in my (F major) mantle so (A minor) green (G major) (F major) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (F major)
(Gsus4) In the ribbon of (F major) her mantle, (G major)
(A minor) tis there I behold (E minor) His
(F major) Name and (B flat major) His Surname
in (A minor) letters of gold
(E minor) Young (F major) William O (G major) 'Reilly
appeared (A minor) in my view
(E minor) He (F major) was my (B flat major) chief comrade
in (F major) famed Wa (D minor) terloo (E minor) (F major) (A minor) (B flat major) (D minor)
(G major) As (D minor) he lay dying, (G major) I (D minor) heard his (G major) last cry, (C major)
For (B flat major) you, lovely Nancy,
I'm (A minor) willing to die.
(E minor) And (D minor) that is the truth, (Gsus4) truth (C major) I declare
(A minor) Here (C major) (F major) is the (B flat major) token, a gold ring (G major) I (Gsus4) wear
(D minor) Here (F major) is the token, a gold ring I wear
