Verse 1
E
D
As I walked out one evening
E
A
down by the riverside
D
E
B
an Ir ish girl I spied
E
A
E
A
A rosy red was in her cheek,
E
B
and cold black was her hair,
E
D
E
And costly were the robes of gold
A
E
my Irish girl did wear.
B
E
D
E
The little shoes this maiden wore,
E
A
And the mantle on her shoulders,
E
B
Oft -silked, was wrought all round.
E
A
E
A
Her gentle face, her modest ways
E
B
Would leave my heart in pain
E
D
I'd ring this world all over
E
A
E
My Irish Celt again
D
E
I wish I was a butterfly
A
E
I'd light on my love's breast
E
B
I'd sing my love to rest
E
A
E
A
I'd sing at morn, I'd sing at eve,
E
B
A love song soft and slow.
E
D
And year by year, I'll love my dear,
E
A
E
Let the wind blow high or low.
