Verse:
A minorAm           BB     E minorEm
Early one morning, one morning in spring
  A minorAm       D MajorD      G+G      BB
To hear the birds whistle, the nightingales sing
 E minorEm     D MajorD     E minorEm     B minorBm
I met a fair maiden who sweetly did sing
  E minorEm     A minorAm      BB     E minorEm
I’m going to be married next Monday morning

Verse:
A minorAm         BB     E minorEm
How old are you, my fair young maid
A minorAm      D MajorD      G+G     BB
Here in this valley, this valley so green
E minorEm     D MajorD    E minorEm     B minorBm
How old are you, my fair young maid
  E minorEm      A minorAm     BB     E minorEm
I’m going to be sixteen next Monday morning


Verse:
   A minorAm              BB      E minorEm
Well, sixteen years old, that’s too young for to marry
  A minorAm    D MajorD        G+G     BB
So take my advice, five years longer to tarry
  E minorEm       D MajorD      E minorEm    B minorBm
For marriage brings troubles and sorrows begin
  E minorEm      A minorAm     BB     E minorEm
So put off your wedding for Monday morning


Verse:
  A minorAm          BB       E minorEm
You talk like a mad man, a man with no skill
   A minorAm       D MajorD    G+G       BB
Five years I’ve been waiting against my own will
  E minorEm    D MajorD      E minorEm     B minorBm
And now I’m determined to have my own way
    E minorEm     A minorAm      BB     E minorEm
And I’m going to be married next Monday morning


Verse:
   A minorAm            BB     E minorEm
Next Monday morning the bells they will ring
  A minorAm       D MajorD    G+G     BB
My true love will buy me a gay golden ring
E minorEm     D MajorD    E minorEm     B minorBm
Also he’ll buy me a new pretty gown
  E minorEm     A minorAm      BB     E minorEm
To wear at my wedding next Monday morning


Verse:
A minorAm            BB    E minorEm
Next Monday night when I go to my bed
   A minorAm  D MajorD      G+G       BB
And I turn around to the man that I’ve wed
E minorEm     D MajorD       E minorEm     B minorBm
Around his middle my two arms I will fling
   E minorEm     A minorAm     BB     E minorEm
And I wish to my soul it was Monday morning
