[F] [N]
[A] [D]
[A] [B] [G] [Am] When first [D] to this country [A] a stranger I [D] came, [A] [E] I placed my affection [D] on a maid that [E] was young.
[A] [E]
She [D] being fair and tender, her [Bm] waist [A] small [D] and slender, [A] kind nature had formed her for
[E] [A] my overgrown.
[D] [A] [B]
[Em] On [A] the banks [D] of the ban [A] where first I beheld [D] [A] her, she [E] appeared like [D] Reginald,
the fair [E] Grecian queen.
[D] Her eyes shone [A] like diamonds, her stars [D] bright gleaming.
Her [A] cheeks
bloomed [D] like [A] roses, [E] her blood [A] drops on [D] snow.
[A]
T'was her [D] cruel parents that [A] first caused our violence,
[B] [Am] all [E] because she was rich [D] and above my [E] degree.
But [D] I'll do my [A] endeavor to gain my [D]
love's favor,
[A] although she has come from a rich family.
[B] [A] [D] And [A] now [D] I have gained her, [A] I'm happy forever.
With [E] rings on her fingers [D] and gold in her [E] ear, [D] and there on the banks [A] of the lovely
[D] Van River, [A] in happy [Bm] [A] contentment [D] I dwell with [A] my dear.
