[G#] What?
Oh, we'll have to show you.
You'll see, it's a nice football game.
It's a marvellous [Gm] game, this.
But for a moment we're going to take a break with some lovely music,
and let's welcome to the programme, Steel Eyes Fan!
[G#] [A] [G]
[A]
For a twelve-month [G] and a day, and if anyone should ask me, the reason why I'm wearing it,
it's all for my true love, who's [F#m] far, far away.
[G] [D]
[A] Where the well [D]-cold winter's
[A] [D] passed, [A] nothing have [D] I gained but my own [E] true [A] love.
I'll sing and I'll [D] be merry [G] when occasion [B] I do see.
[D] He's a [A] fast and moody [D] young man, let him go, [A] farewell [D] he.
The [A] other night he [D] brought me a fine diamond [A] ring,
but he thought to have [D] deprived me of the [B] first [A] fantasy.
But I, being [D] careful [G] like a [B] lover's ought to be,
[A] he's a fast and moody [D] young man, let him go, [A] farewell [D] he.
[A] [D] [G] I [D] will wear the [A] green willow, [D] and [A] all around [F#m] my hat,
[G] for a twelve [E]-month [A] and a day, and if anyone [D] should ask me, [G] the reason why [B] I'm wearing [A] it,
[D] it's [A] all for [D] my true love, who's far, [A] far [D] away.
