[G] [Cm]
It [Eb] was on the [Gm]
5th of [Gm] August, the [C] weather [Cm] fair [Eb] and [Cm]
mild,
Unto [Eb] Brick Fair I did repair,
[Gm] for love I was [Cm] inclined.
I rose up with a look [Gm] in the morning, [Ab] my heart was [Cm] full [Eb] of glee,
Expecting there to [Eb] see my love, [Gm]
[Gm] long time I'd wish [Cm] to see.
I looked [Eb] over [Gm] my left [Gm] shoulder,
[Cm] to see whom I [Eb] could see,
[Cm]
And there I saw my own true love [Gm]
come walking down [Cm] to me.
I [Eb] took hold of [Gm] his hand, [Cm] and merrily sang [Eb] my [Cm] heart,
And now we are together, [Gm] I trust we ne'er [Cm] shall part.
For [Eb] the green leaves they'll [Gm] all wither, [Cm] the roots they'll all [Eb] decay,
[Cm]
Wherever
[Eb] I profile to him, [Gm] the man who [Cm] loves me.
