Oh, come all ye maids who live at a distance

Many's a mile from off your sway

Come and assist me this very moment

When I wake, I take no rest
C     F      C
Every moment thinking on you
                    G7      C
My heart o'er fixed in your breast
      F                   Dm7        G
But although far distance maybe of assistance

All living things shall cease to die
   C    F              C
If ever I should prove false to my jewel
               G7     C
Or any way his love deny
        F                      Dm7     G
Oh, the world shall change and be most strange

So farewell lads and farewell lassies
                 F       G7
Now I think I've made my choice
 C      F      C
I will away to yonder mountain
                G7       C
Where I think I hear his voice
    F             Dm7    G
And if he hollows I will follow
 C                      F       G
Around the world though it's so wide
C         F       C
For young Thomas, he did promise
                G7     C
I should be his lawful bride
