[A] As I went out on a bright morning to take a pleasant walk
[Em] I sat [Am] down to say an old song, just to [A] hear two lovers talk
For to hear two lovers talk, my love, to hear what [D] they might say
[A] So [G] I might learn a little more [D] love [A] before I go away
P stands for Patty's boat, J [G] for my love, [A] John
[G] W stands [D] for [Am] falsehood, oh, but Johnny's the fairest man
Johnny is the fairest man, she said, Johnny [D] is the [E] fairest man

Oh, I'll not sit beside you, love, not for [G] any other time
