Oh, what's the [A] matter with [E] you, dear?
[D]
[G] Where's your [A] dashing Jimmy?
[D]
Well, I sold your boy for [A] [D] naked, sent him far, far from thee.
Last May, he [G] went off to [Em] town with a man red-coated, [A] no-no.
[D] Pentice, [A] stimulum, got [D] him drunk, and he [A] battered on [G] to the gallows.
[D] On the very sight [A] of a [E] disc of [D] cane, it [G] set us all a [A]-praying.
[D]
And me, I [A] nearly fainted [D] twice, I thought that I was dying.
Oh, me father would [G] have paid [Bm] the smat, [Em] and he ran for the [A] Golden Guinea.
But [D] the sergeant swore that [A] he'd [Bm] kissed the [C#m] book, [D] and now [A] there he'd got [G] young Jimmy.
[D] When Jimmy talks [A] [Em] about [C#m] the [G] wars, [D] it's [G] worse than death [A] to hear [D] him.
I must go [A] out and hide my [D] tears, because I cannot bear him.
Oh, a brigadier [G] or a grenadier, [Em] he says they're sure to [A] make [D] him.
And I, he jives [A] and cracks his jokes, [D] and he pips me [A] not [G] forsaking.

As I walked over [A] the stubble [D] field, below [G] it runs [A] the scene.
[D] Well, I dreamt of [A] Jimmy, him in [D] care, and it was all a dream.
For he healed the very [G] poles we burn, [Em] and when the fire [A] I'm lighting.
[D] Oh, to think the lumps was in his hands, it sets [A] me hard [G] to beating.
[D] Oh, so break me [G] heart, and then it's over.
[Em]
Break me [A] heart, me [D] dearie.
And lay me down on [A] the [G] cold [C#] green ground, [D] for a single [A] life [G] I'm weary.
