One morning, one [A] morning, [E] one morning [B] in May, I spied a [F#m] young Pa'ul, they were [E] making their [F#] way.
[B] One [G#m] was a maiden [Em] so bright [B] and so fair, the other a [E] soldier [F#] and a [B] brave volunteer.
Good morning, [A] good morning, [E] good morning [B] said he, where are [A] you going [E] my pretty [F#] lady?
[B] I'm going [G#m] out walking on [E] the banks of the [B] sea, to see the [E] waters glide [F#] here the night [B] and gales sing.
[A] [E] [B]
[E] [F#] [B]
They had [A] not been standing but [E] a minute [B] or two, when out [A] of his [E] knapsack the fiddle he [F#] drew.
[B] The tune that [G#m] he played [E] made the valleys all [B] ring, oh how I [E] cried the lady, [F#] here the night and [B] gales sing.
Oh maiden, [A] fair maiden, [E] it is time to [B] give o'er, oh [A] no kind soldier, [E] please play one tune [F#] more.
[B] I'd rather [G#m] you fiddle the [E]
touch of one [B] string, than see the [E] waters glide [F#] here the [B] night and gales sing.
[A] [E] [B]
[E] [F#] [B]
Oh soldier, [A] kind soldier, [E] will you marry [B] me?
Oh no [A] pretty maiden, that [E]
never shall [F#] be.
[B] I've a wife [G#m] down in London, [E] and children twice [B] three, two wives and [E] the army's [F#] too many [B] for me.
I'll go [F#m] back to London [E] and stay [B] for a year, it's [F#m] often I'll [E] think of you my little [F#] dear.
[B] If ever I [G#m] return, [E] it'll be in the [B] spring, to see the [E] waters glide [F#] here the night and [B] gales sing.
