Bonny Light Horseman chords by Siobhan Miller

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse:
   G
When Boney commanded
  C    Em
His army to stand
  Am7   G  C
He leveled his cannon
C       D  Dsus2 D
Right over the land

  G
He leveled his cannon
  C     Em
His victory to gain
  Am7   G   C
And slew my light horseman
C         D  Dsus2 D
On the way coming home

Chorus:
    G
Broken-hearted I'll wander
    C    Em
Broken-hearted I'll remain
     Am7  G   C
Since my bonny light horseman
C         D   Dsus2 D
In the wars he was slain


Verse:
    G
And if I was a small bird
  C      Em
And had wings to fly
    Am7 G    C
I would fly o'er the ocean
C        D  Dsus2 D
To where my love lies

  G
And with my fond wings
     C  Em
I'd beat over his grave
  Am7   G   C
And kiss the sweet lips that
C        D  Dsus2 D
Lie cold in the clay


Chorus:
    G
Broken-hearted I'll wander
    C    Em
Broken-hearted I'll remain
     Am7  G   C
Since my bonny light horseman
C         D   Dsus2 D
In the wars he was slain


Verse:
  Em
Now the dove she laments for
Em
Her mate as she flies
  Am7  G C
Oh, tell me where does
C         D Dsus2 D
My true love here lie

  Em
And where in this wide world
Em
Is there one to compare
    Am7  G  C
With my bonny light horseman
C          D  Dsus2 D
Who was slain in the war


Chorus:
    G
Broken-hearted I'll wander
    C    Em
Broken-hearted I'll remain
     Am7  G   C
Since my bonny light horseman
C         D   Dsus2 D
In the wars he was slain

    G
Broken-hearted I'll wander
    C    Em
Broken-hearted I'll remain
     Am7  G   C
Since my bonny light horseman
C         D   Dsus2 D
In the wars he was slain
