[C#]
The night that I was
[F#] married [C#] and in my [A#] married
[G#] clad,
[C#] Off comes a balsy
[F#] captain [C#] and stood [A#] at [G#] my [C#] bed head,
[A#m] Said, rise, rise, [D#] young [C#] wedded man, [F#] and come along [F#] with
[G#] me
[C#] To the
[A#m] lowlands [D#m] of Holland for to fight [C#] the enemy.
Now Holland is a lovely [F#] land [C#] and in it grows [A#m] fine grain,
[G#] [C#] It is a place of [F#] residence [D#] for soldiers [G#] to [C#]
remain,
Where [A#m] the
[Fm] sugarcane [D#m] is plentifully [C#] full and [F#] the [A#m] tea grows [G#] on [F#] each tree.
[G#] I [A#m]
never had but [D#m] one sweetheart and she's [A#m] far [C#]
away from me,
Said, mother to the [F#]
daughter, [C#] live of [G#] your [A#m] soul a man,
[G#]
[C#] There's men enough in [F#] Galway [C#] to be [G#] your [C#] heart's content,
There are men [D#m]
enough in [G#]
Galway but [C#] alas there's none [F#] for me,
[G#]
[A#m] Since the high winds and [D#m] the stormy seas [A#m] have [C#] parted my love to London be.
I'll wear no stays around [F#] my waist, [C#] no combs [G#] all in [A#m] my [G#] hair,
[C#] No hankerchief around my neck to shade [G#] my beauty [C#] fair,
And [A#] neither will I [C#] marry until the day [F#] I die,
[G#]
[C#] Since the high winds and [F#] the [Fm] stormy seas have parted [C#] my love to London be.
[Bm] [N]
