a walk [Ab] by the fields I chanced [Fm] to stray,

_ As I walked out [Fm] one _ [Ab] morning fair, [Fm] it been in [Db] the [Ab] month of _ _ June.
_ The dew was _ [Bbm] sparkling on _ [Db]
the grass, [Ab] and the small birds in full [Fm] _ tune.
_ _ [Ab] And when _ returning _ _ [Bbm] from [Db]
a walk [Ab] by the fields I chanced [Fm] to stray,
_ [Ab] It was there I met my [Fm] _ _ [Ab]
heart's delight by [Fm] the [Ab] dawning _ of the day.
_ _ Her head and beautiful [Fm] neck [Ab]
were bare [Fm] and _ mantle [Ab] none she _ wore.
_ Her golden _ hair [Bbm] in _ [Ab]
ringlets fair, it hung her _ [Fm] shoulders o'er.
_ [Ab] Her _ rosy cheeks [Bbm] and _ [Db]
ruby [Ab] lips, they stole my _ [Fm] heart away.
_ _ [Ab] And I stood [Cm] to stare [Fm] at that _ [Ab]
Venus fair [Fm] at the _ [Ab] dawning _ of the day.
_ Where are you [Cm] going [Fm] my [Ab] pretty fair maid, [Fm] where are [Ab] you going so _ soon?
_ I'm going a milking [Bbm] my cow, [Db]
kind sir, [Ab] it been in the month [Fm] of June.
_ _ [Ab] And the _ pasture that [Bbm] my cow [Ab]
feeds on, [Ab] it lies so _ [Fm] far away.
_ _ [Ab] And I've got to [Cm] be there [Fm] each _ [Ab]
[Cm] morning fair [Fm] by the _ dawning _ [Ab] of the day.
_ Come _ sit down [Fm] my pretty [Ab]
fair maid, [Fm] _ supposing [Db] it _ [Ab] was a mile. _
_ _ Come sit down on this [Bbm] _ _ [Db]
primrosey bind [Ab] and we will chat [Fm] a while.
_ [Ab] With the _ lambkin sporting [Bbm] on _ [Db] every [Ab] side and the meadows _ blooming [Fm] _ _ gay,
_ [Ab] I'll pledge [Cm] to you [Fm] my _ [Ab] heart and hand [Fm] at the [Db] dawning _ [Ab] of the day. _
Oh no [Cm] kind sir, [Fm] the maid [Cm] replied, [Fm] I _ [Db] cannot hurry _ [Ab] now. _ _
My _ parents wait [Bbm] for my [Db] return [Ab] from the milking of [Fm] my cow.
_ _ _ [Ab]
But perhaps we'll meet [Bbm] some [Db] other time if you [Ab] chance to pass [Fm] this _ way.
_ [Ab] And she _ gently _ [Fm] delighted from [Cm] my sight [Fm] at the _ dawning [Db] _ [Ab] of the day. _ _ _ _
