[Gm] As I rode [Em] over [Am] [G] London Bridge [C] One [G]
misty morning [D] early
[G] I [C]
heard a [D] tender [Em]-hearted girl [D] Plead for [Em] the [C] life of [D]
[G] Geordie
Now Geordie robbed [E] no storehouses He never murdered any
He only shot a king's [B] white [A] deer [D] Or [E] fought [B] to feed [A] his [D] family
[G] Then the judge looked [E] over his left shoulder And thus he says to Geordie
By your confession you [B] shall hang [A] [D] And the [A] Lord have [Bm] mercy [A] [D] upon you

Then [G] Geordie [E] looked [G] around the court [C] And [Em] saw his [G] dearest Polly
Said [C] he, my love, [D] you've come [Em] too late [D] For [Em] I'm [C] condemned [D] [G] already
There's six pretty [E] birds I've borne to you And the seventh lies in my body
But freely would I [B] part with them [A] [D] To [E] spare the life [Am] of [Dm] Geordie
[A] [G] Then Geordie he [C] walked around [G] the court [C] And [G] said farewell [D] to many
But [G] the [C] leaving of [D] his own [E] true love [D] That [E] grieved him [C] worst of all

Let Geordie [D] [C] in [Em] golden [F#m] chains [E] His crimes [Em] they were not [F#] many
