[Verse 1]

G Am G
As I roved out one evening fair

C F
By the verdant braes of Skreen

C G Am G
I set my back to a hawthorn tree

C F Dm7 G
To view the sun in the West Country

C G C
And the dew on the forest green

[Verse 2]

G Am G
A lad I spied by Abhann's side

C F
And a maiden on his knee

C G Am G
And he was as dark as the very brown wood

C F Am G
And she all whey and wan to see

C G C
All whey and wan was she

[Verse 3]

G Am G
"Oh sit you down on the grass," he said

C F
"On the dewy grass so green

Am G F G
For the wee birds all have come and gone

C F Am G
Since I my true love have seen," he said

C G C
"Since I my true love have seen"
