G+G          C majorC
 O'er the hills and o'er the main
G+G           C majorC
 Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain
G+G             C majorC
 King George commands and we obey
G+G       Cm/A     D MajorD
 Over the hills  and far away

    G+G       C majorC D MajorD   G+G        D MajorD
And we sailed out of England bound for Lisbon harbour
G+G         B minorBm     C majorC       D MajorD
 With bayonets a-gleaming and pride to the fore
G+G        B minorBm      C majorC       A augmentedA
 We'd little to hope but we tried hard to cherish
G+G           C majorC     D MajorD      | C majorC ..
 The thoughts of Our loved ones on England's fair shore..

.. B minorBm | A minorAm |
| C majorC B minorBm | A minorAm |

G+G      C majorC    D MajorD      G+G      D MajorD
Soon We were transported through hell and its fury
G+G             B minorBm      C majorC        D MajorD
 Through smoke and through fire, through shot and through flame
G+G      B minorBm   C majorC       A augmentedA
 And at Telavera We stole Boney's Eagle
G+G         C majorC      D MajorD  | C majorC ..
 And in that short time We were heroes of Spain

.. B minorBm | A minorAm |
| C majorC B minorBm | A minorAm |

   G+G     C majorC D MajorD  G+G         D MajorD
And I met with a maiden hair black as the raven
G+G         B minorBm      C majorC      D MajorD
 Her eyes they did glister like two diamonds bright
G+G        B minorBm     C majorC     A augmentedA
 We spoke not a word at Our very first meeting
G+G         C majorC    D MajorD    | C majorC ..
 And I lay in Her arms all that long Spanish night

.. B minorBm | A minorAm |
| C majorC B minorBm | A minorAm |

    G+G     C majorC  D MajorD     G+G      D MajorD
And We travelled together o'er mountain and valley
G+G       B minorBm      C majorC     D MajorD
 And She by My side through many's the fight
G+G       B minorBm        C majorC      A augmentedA
 She tended My suffering and She salved Me of pity
G+G       C majorC    D MajorD    | C majorC ..
 And bore Me a daughter for My heart's delight

.. B minorBm | A minorAm |
| C majorC B minorBm | A minorAm |

    G+G      C majorC D MajorD  G+G         D MajorD
And We marched into Lisbon proud Wellington's army
G+G       B minorBm     C majorC       D MajorD
 The war being over it's homeward We're bound
G+G        B minorBm    C majorC         A augmentedA
 And all on the quayside - the weeping and wailing
G+G       C majorC     D MajorD | C majorC ,,
 Four thousand women left on that cold ground

.. B minorBm | A minorAm |
| C majorC B minorBm | A minorAm |

  G+G     B minorBm  C majorC         D MajorD
Farewell and adieu  to You Spanish lady
A minorAm       D MajorD       A minorAm    D MajorD
 Farewell and adieu  to You ladies of Spain
G+G       B minorBm     C majorC         D MajorD
 For We've recieved orders  to sail home to England
    G+G      C majorC      D MajorD     C majorC
But I know in some time We'll return once again..

    G+G    C majorC  D MajorD        G+G       D MajorD
And if ever I'm returning it's with gold in great plenty
G+G      B minorBm       C majorC       D MajorD
 And if I return it's with gold in great store
G+G          B minorBm    C majorC     A augmentedA
 I'll search far and wide for My Spanish lady
G+G          C majorC      D MajorD      | C majorC ..
 Who brought Me such peace in the midst of such war
