Verse 1:
E minorEm             D MajorD
Come all ye fair and tender ladies
E minorEm             B minorBm
Take warning how you court young men
D MajorD                  F minorFm
They're like the stars on a summers mornin'
     B minorBm   G+G        A augmentedA
First they appear and then they're gone

Verse 2:
E minorEm           D MajorD
My father is a handsome devil
E minorEm                B minorBm
He wears a chain that's five miles long
D MajorD             F minorFm
On every link a heart does dangle
     B minorBm  G+G        A augmentedA
Of another maid he's loved and wronged

Verse 3:
E minorEm           D MajorD
If I had known before I courted
E minorEm             B minorBm
I never would have courted none
D MajorD               F minorFm
no I'd of lock heart in box of golden
        B minorBm G+G       A augmentedA
and fastened it up with a silver pin

Verse 4:
E minorEm          D MajorD
I wish were a little sparrow
E minorEm             B minorBm
And I had wings and I could fly
 D MajorD             F minorFm
I'd fly away to my own false lover
       B minorBm   G+G    A augmentedA
and when he's talking I'd be nigh

Verse 5:
E minorEm          D MajorD
But I am not a little sparrow
E minorEm            B minorBm
I have no wings nor can I fly
D MajorD                 F minorFm
So I'll sit right here and weep in sorrow
     B minorBm  G+G      A augmentedA
and try to pass my troubles by
