[D] For a dwelty islandman came from the Carronside To steal away a Pea Moray, cause she wouldn't

Out it came [Dm] her mother, [C] then [Am] it was a moonlit night.
[D] She couldn't [Am] see her daughter far, [D] the moon it shone so bright, so bright, the moon it
shone so bright.
They've taken [Dm] a Pea Moray [Am] and a horse, they've bound her on, [D] and they're [Am] away to [D] Carronside
As fast as a horse could gang, could gang, as fast [C] as a horse [Dm] could gang.
And they've taken a pistol [Em] out and put it to [D] the minister's breast.
[Bb] Oh marry me, [Am] marry me minister, [D] or else I'll be a priest, a priest, or else I'll be a [Dm] priest.

[D] And [Bb] willie and [C] a Pea Moray, poor him, [Dm] one bed [Am] they were [Dm] laid, were laid, one bed they were laid.
He's taken the shirt from off his [Am] back, and kicked away his shoes, [Dm] and thrown away the [Am] chamber [Dm] key.
And [Am] naked he lay [Dm] down, lay down, naked he lay down.
He kissed her on the _
[Am] shoulder, [Gm] [Dm] swore, but now she got [Am] a nice, she spat, [D] turned it to
the wall, the wall, [Dm] turned it to the wall.
There as her there, through the night, [Am] before the break of day.
