[A] [D] I rode out one bright [A] summer's morning Down by the gate-banks of some clear and pleasant
stream There [D] I spied a fair maid making sad
[A] lamentations
So I threw myself in ambush to hear her sad refrain
Through the woods she marched [D] along, caused the valleys [A] to rain
And the fine [D] feathered songsters [A] around [D] her there clung
Saying the war's there are over and peace is [A] restored again
[E] Yet [D] my will is not [A] returning from the flames of Waterloo
[D] [A]
[D] Well I stepped up to this fair maid and stared my fun [A] creature
Oh may I make [A] so bold as to ask your true love's name
For [D] it's I have been in battle where the guns around her [A] rattle
[Bm] [A] And why some strange fortune I might have known the same
Will this [Am] miss me true love's [D] name, he's a hero of great fame
[A] And he's [B] gone and [Am] his [A] lay in sorrows is [D] true
Yet no one will I enjoy but me own [A] dying boy
[D] Although [A] he's not returned yet from the flames of Waterloo

[A] With Willis [D] missed your true love's name, he's a hero of great [A] fame
He and I have been in battle through many's a long campaign
[D] Through Italy and Russia, through Germany and [A] Prussia
Oh he was me loyal comrade through France and through Spain
Until [D] I'd left the French we were [A] surrounded like the [D] heroes of our war
We waited the dance of June, we would fight for days until we did [A] defeat him
That bold Napoleon, bold he on [A] the flames of Waterloo
[D] On [A]
[D] the 18th day of June it is end of [A] the battle
Leaving many's a poor hero to sigh and to moan
Oh [D] the war drums they did beat and the cannons [A] loudly rattled
It was by a French soldier your will he was slain
And as I passed by pleading, oh I [D] scarcely had time to let him adieu
The falter in vice, his words he was [A] repeating
Fare thee well my lovely Annie you are far from Waterloo

[A] [D] when this fair maid heard his sad [A] acclamation
Well her two rosy cheeks turned to pale and to woe
[D] And when he saw this fair maid making sad [A] lamentations
Oh he said my dearest Annie I am that very one
And here [Dm] is the reason he's broken [A] between us in the midst [D] of all day
[A] He [G] made me adieu [A]
[D] when she saw the token she fell into [A] his arms
And saying you're welcome dearest Willie from the [G] plains of [A] Waterloo
[D] [A] [D] [A]
