Verse 1
(G major) (C major) (F major) (C major) (D major) (C major) (D major) Have you
(G major) ever been in love, boys,
or (C major) have you felt the (G major) pain?
I'd (C major) rather be in jail me (G major) self
than (C major) be in (A major) love (D major) again.
For the (C major) girl I (D major) loved was (G major) beautiful,
(C major) I'd have you all to know.
(D major) And I (E minor) met her in the (G major) garden
where the (C major) pretties grow.
(G major) She was just the sort of creature,
(C major) boys, that nature did intend.
To walk right through the (G major) world,
me boys, (C major) without the (A major) Grecian (D major) bend.
Nor (C major) did she wear a (G major) chignon,
I'd (C major) have you all to know,
(D major) And (C major) I met her (G major) in the garden
where the (C major) pretties grow. (G major) (F major) (C major) (D major) (C major)
(D major) Now, says (G major) I, my pretty Kathleen,
I'm (A major) tired of single (G major) life,
And (C major) if you've no objec (G major) tion,
well, I'll (C major) make you (A major) my sweet (D major) wife.
She (C major) answered me right (G major) modestly,
and she (F major) curtsied (C major) very low,
Ach, (G major) you're (E minor) welcome to the (G major) garden
(C major) where the pretties grow
(G major) She was just the sort of creature,
(C major) boys, that nature did in (G major) tend
(C major) To walk right (G major) through the world,
me boys, (C major) without the (A major) Grecian (D major) bend
Nor (C major) did she wear a (G major) chignon,
(C major) I'd have you all to know
(D major) An d I (C major) met her in the (G major) garden
where the (C major) pretties grow (G major) (C major) (D major) (C major)
(D major) Now, (G major) says I, my pretty Kathleen,
I (C major) hope that you'll agree
She (G major) (C major) wasn't like the city girls
(G major) who (C major) say you're (A major) mackin' (D major) free
So (C major) she a locks me parents
and tomor (G major) row I'll let you (C major) know
(D major) If you'll (G major) meet me in the garden
where the (C major) pretties grow
(G major) She was just the sort of creature,
boys, that (C major) nature did in (G major) tend
To (C major) walk right (G major) through the world,
me boys, (C major) without a (A major) Grecian (D major) bend
Nor (C major) did she wear a (G major) chignon,
I'd (C major) have you all to know
(D major) An d I (C major) met her in the (G major) garden
where the (C major) pretties grow (G major) (C major) (D major)
Now the (G major) parents they consented
and were (C major) blessed with children (G major) three
Two (C major) boys just (G major) like their mother
and (C major) a girl the im (A major) age of (D major) me
And (C major) now we're (D major) going to (G major) train them up
the (C major) way they ought to go
(D major) For to (G major) dig in the garden
where the (C major) pretties grow
(G major) She was just the sort of creature,
(C major) boys, that nature did intend
To walk right through the (G major) world,
me boys, (C major) without a (A minor) Grecian (D major) bend
Nor (C major) did she wear a (G major) chignon,
I'd (C major) have you all to know
An (D major) d I (C major) met her in the (G major) garden
where the (C major) pretties grow (G major) you
