Pretty Fair Maid In The Garden chords by Tim Obrien

Guitar chords with lyrics

G
Pretty fair maid was in her garden
       Em       D             G
When a stranger came a-riding by
              F#m           Em
He came up to the gate and called her
                 D                    G
Said pretty fair maid would you be my bride

G
Said I've a true love who's in the army
               Em   D              G
And he's been gone for seven long years
                F#m               Em
And if he's gone for seven years longer
              D                G
I'll still be waiting for him here
G
Perhaps he's on some watercourse drowning
             Em D                G
Perhaps he's on some battlefield slain
               F#m          Em
Perhaps he's to a fair girl married
            D              G
And you may never see him again

G
Well if he's drowned, I hope he's happy
           Em D                 G
Or if he's on some battlefield slain
              F#m             Em
And if he's to some fair girl married
              D                 G
I'll love the girl that married him

G
He took his hand out of his pocket
           Em         D            G
And on his finger he wore a golden ring
                 F#m         Em
And when she saw that band a-shining
            D                   G
A brand new song her heart did sing

G
And then he threw his arms all around her
       Em   D               G
Kisses gave her one, two, three
                  F#m         Em
Said I'm your true and loving soldier
                D              G
That's come back home to marry thee

G
Pretty fair maid was in her garden
       Em       D             G
When a stranger came a-riding by
              F#m           Em
He came up to the gate and called her
                 D                    G
Said pretty fair maid would you be my bride
