[D]
O Peggy Golden, you are my darling,
[A] [D] [G] come sit [D] ye down upon my [A] knee, [D] and tell to me the very
[A] reason [D] [G] why I am [D] [A] slighted so [D] by thee.
I am in love, I cannot deny [A] it.
[D] [G] My heart lies
[D] troubled in [A] the abyss.
[Bm] It's not [D] for me to let [Bm] the [D] world know.
[A]
[D] [G] A troubled [D]
heart can find no rest.
I put my head, a cask of
[A] brandy.
[D] [G]
It was my [D] fancy so to [A] do.
[G] For when I [D] am drinking, I am seldom [A] thinking, [D] [G]
and [D] wishing Peggy [A]
[D] Golden was here.
You wish I was away in [A] England, [D] [G] far [D] across the briny [A] sea, [D] [G] sailing [D] over the deepest [A] ocean,
[D]
[G] where love [D] and care lay.
[A] [D] Although they wish I were [G] in a [D] lonely valley, [A] [D] [G] where women [D] kind cannot be [A] found,
[D] where all the small bells, they change their [A] voices, [D] [G] and every [D] moment [A] a [D] difference is.
