[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ A blacksmith _
[D] courted me [A] [Em] nine months and better, _ He fairly won [D] my heart, [Em] brought me a letter.
_ [D] With his [A] hammer [Em] in his hand he looked quite [D] clever, _ [Em] And if I was [A] with [G] my _ love I'd live [E] forever. _ _ _ _ _ _
But [Em] where is my [A] [D] love gone? _
[Em] With his cheeks like roses, _ And his good black [A] billy-cock gone, [Em] Decked around with _ _ primroses.
I'm afraid [A] the [Em] scorching sun will shine and burn [A] his [D] beauty, [A] And if I was with [G] my love [Em] I'd do [D] my [Em] duty. _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
[Am] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _
Strange [Am] news is [D] coming to town, _ [Am] [E] strange news is carried, _ _ Strange news flies [A] up and down [Em] that my love is married. _ _
[D] I [A] wish them [Em] both much _ joy, though they can't [D] hear me, [Em] And may God [A] [G] reward him well [Em] for the slighting of me.
_ _ _ _ _ Don't you [A] remember when [Bm] _ [Am] you lay [Em] beside me, _ And you said you'd [A] marry _ [Bm] me [Am] and [Em] not deny me?
If I said [Dm] I'd [Em] marry you, _ it was only for [D] to try you, [E] So bring [Em] your witness, _ love, and I'll not deny _ you. _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ O witness, [F#] have I none _ [E] save God Almighty, _ [Em] And may he reward [D] you well [A] for [E] the _ slighting of me.
[D] Her cheeks grew [Em] pale and warm, it made her [A] poor heart to [D] tremble, [Em] To think she [A] loved [Em] a one and he [B] [E] proved _ deceitful. _
