Rosemary Lane chords by
James Yorkston
James Yorkston

N/A
Verse 1
A

When I was in service in
G

Rosemary
A

Lane I kept the goodwill of
G
A

my master and dame
G

Until a young sailor he came to stay
A
G
A

And that was the beginning of my misery
G
A

He called for a candle to light him to bed,
G

And likewise a silk handkerchief to tie up
A

his hair.
G

To tie up his hair, let's say a little do,
A

Says he, pretty
G
A

Polly, won't you come to bed too?

This girl being young and foolish,
G
A

she thought of no how,
G
A

To jump into bed, to keep herself warm
G

But what's done next, I'll never declare
A

But I wish that short night had paid
G
A
G
A
G
A

seven long years
G
A

And early next morning the sailor rose

And into her lap he threw
G
A

handfuls of gold
G

Saying this, I will give them all I will do
A

If you'll be my
G
A

Polly wherever I go

And when your baby's born,
G
A

you'll put it to love
G
A

And sit like a lady with gold in your purse

With gold in your purse and
G

milk in your breast
A

Saying that's what she got
G
A

by a sailor in the west
G
A

Now if it's a boy, he'll fight for the king

And if it's a girl,
G
A

she'll wear a gold ring

She'll wear a gold ring and
G
Em

dress all aflame
G
A

And re member my service in
G

Rosemary
A
G
Em
G
A
G
A

Lane

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
