[Bm] One day as I [A] was walking, [C#] and a _ [A]-walking [Bm] all alone, I heard a young [A] _ couple [Em] a [A]-making [Bm] their _
way to the farm.
And the young couple, who was a-making their way to the farm, said, [D] the older one [A] to the
fonder one, [D] Bonnie lass, I [G] must [F#] away, _
_ [Em] _ _ [D] for the king he [Bm] has commanded us, [G] and his orders
I [Bm] must obey.

[G] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ I [G] _ _ _ _ [Bm] fear the [A] treacherous journey, bitter [Em] cold, and the long and arduous journey.
I fear the treacherous journey, bitter cold, and [Bm] burning heat.
The frozen and stony [A] mountains, [G] they will wound your [Bm] tender feet.
And to [D] your kinsmen too [A] you will prove untrue, [D] if from [G] them you go.

to go, [D] through rain and snow and [A] through weird, [D] wild, brook and [G] icy _ sea, [Em] _ _ _
_ [D] comes to beat [Bm] in
the trumpet [F#] sound and [G] the wars of high [Bm] Germany. _
