C majorC G+G D MajorD
Come all ye lads of high renown
G+G D MajorD G+G C majorC
And would hear of a fair young maiden

And she rode out of a summer's day
G+G D MajorD G+G
For to view the soldiers parading
C majorC E minorEm D MajorD
They marched so bold and they looked so ga-ay
C majorC G+G
The colours flying and the bands did play
C majorC G+G C majorC G+G
And it caused young Mary for to say
D MajorD G+G
"I'll wed you, my gallant soldier"
C majorC G+G D MajorD
And she viewed the soldiers on parade
G+G D MajorD G+G
And as they stood at their leisure
C majorC G+G D MajorD
And Mary to herself did say
G+G D MajorD G+G
"At last I've found my treasure
C majorC E minorEm D MajorD
But oh, how cruel my parents must be-e
C majorC G+G
To banish my darling so far from me

But I'll leave them all and I'll go with thee
D MajorD G+G
You wild, undaunted soldier"

"Oh, Mary dear, your parents love

C majorC G+G D MajorD
For when you're in a foreign land
G+G D MajorD G+G
Believe me, you'll rue it surely
C majorC E minorEm D MajorD
And if in battle I might fall_
C majorC G+G
By a shot from an angry cannonball
C majorC G+G C majorC G+G
And you so far from your daddy's hall
D MajorD G+G
Be advised by your gallant soldier"
