Key: D major

Verse 1
D D 
 
Bm Bm 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
O Simon,
a cellarer keeps a restore
A A 
 
Of Monty and Malvoisie,
Bm Bm 
 
Em Em 
 
And Cyprus, and who can say
D D 
 
how many more?
Em Em 
 
A A 
 
For a cherry old soul is he,
D D 
 
A A 
 
a  cherry old soul is he.
D D 
 
Of sack and canary he never doth fail,
And all the year round
there's brewing no hail.
F# F# 
 
Bm Bm 
 
F# F# 
 
D D 
 
Yet he never aleth, he quaintly doth say,
While he keeps to his sober
Bm Bm 
 
six flagons a day.
D D 
 
But oh -ho -ho, his nose doth show
A A 
 
D D 
 
How oft the blackjack
to his lips doth go.
Day Marjorie sits in her own still room,
Bm Bm 
 
A A 
 
And a matron sage is she.
D D 
 
From thence off that curfew
G G 
 
D D 
 
is wafted a fume,
Em Em 
 
A A 
 
She says it is Rosemary.
D D 
 
A A 
 
She says it is Rosemary.
D D 
 
But there's a small cupboard
behind the back stair,
And the maids say
they often see Marjorie there.
F# F# 
 
Now Marjorie says
that she grows very old,
D D 
 
An d must take a something
Bm Bm 
 
to keep out the cold.
D D 
 
But oh, oh, old Simon doth know
G G 
 
D D 
 
Where many a flask of his be st doth go.
But all Simon doth know,
A A 
 
D D 
 
Where many a flask of his best doth go.
All Simon reclines in his high
-backed chair,
Bm Bm 
 
A A 
 
And talks about taking a wife,
G G 
 
A A 
 
D D 
 
And Marjorie often is heard to declare
Em Em 
 
That she ought to be settled in life,
D D 
 
A A 
 
She ought to be settled in life.
D D 
 
But Marjorie has a southern maidsay and tongue,
And she's not very handsome
and not very young,
F# F# 
 
Bm Bm 
 
So somehow it ends
D D 
 
with a shake of the head
Bm Bm 
 
An  d Simon,
Em Em 
 
Bm Bm 
 
brews him a tankard instead.
D D 
 
Why, no, ho, ho,
he will chuckle and crow,
G G 
 
D D 
 
What merry old Marjorie, no, no, no!
Why, no, ho, ho,
A A 
 
he will chuckle and crow,
D D 
 
G G 
 
D D 
 
What merry old Marjorie, no, no,
no!
