When I was in service in the Rosemary Lane
 A minorAm      A minorAm     G+G    D MajorD  | D MajorD  |
I won the good will of my master Amberdine
    A minorAm     A minorAm    G+G    D MajorD  | D MajorD  |
Till a sailor came there one night to lay

And that was the beginning of my misery

He called for a candle to light him to bed

This may be young and foolish, she thought it no harm
  A minorAm    A minorAm     G+G      D MajorD  | D MajorD  |
To lie into bed but to keep herself warm
  A minorAm      A minorAm      G+G    D MajorD  | D MajorD  |
And what was done there, I will never disclose
   A minorAm       C majorC       G+G     A minorAm  | A minorAm  | A minorAm  | A minorAm  |
But I wish that short night had been seven long years

And into my apron 3 guineas did throw
    A minorAm     A minorAm    G+G      D MajorD  | D MajorD  |
Saying "This I will give and more I will do
     A minorAm      C majorC    G+G    A minorAm  | A minorAm  | A minorAm  | A minorAm  |
If you'll be my pretty Polly wherever I go"

And if it's a boy, he'll fight for the King
  A minorAm    A minorAm      G+G      D MajorD  | D MajorD  |
And if it's a girl she will wear a gold ring
A minorAm     A minorAm     G+G     D MajorD  | D MajorD  |
Wear a gold ring and a dress all aflame
   A minorAm    C majorC       G+G    A minorAm  | A minorAm  | A minorAm  | A minorAm  |
And remember my service in the Rosemary Lane
