[Verse 1]
G G C D
A damsel possessed of great beauty,
G D G G
as she stood at her own father's gate.
G G C D
Where the gallant hussars were on duty
G D G G
to view them this maiden did wait.
G G C D
Their horses stood cap'ring and prancing,
G G D D
their accoutrements shone like a star.
G G C D
And as they stood nearer advancing,
G D G G
Young Jane spied her gallant hussar.

[Verse 2]
G D/A C D
With their pelisses hung o'er their shoulders,
G D G G
how careless they seemed for to ride.
G D/A C D
And warlike appeared this young soldier
G D G G
with his glittering sword by his side.
G G C D
To the barracks next morning so early
G G D D
this damsel she went in a car,
G D/A C D
because she loved him so dearly:
G D G G
Young Edward, the gallant hussar.

[Verse 3]
G D/A C D
Oh, as she conversed with the soldiers,
G D G G
these words she was heard for to say:
G D/A C D
“Oh, I've a heart no one bolder,
G D G G
to follow my laddie away.”
G G C D
“Well, come, come,” says Edward, ”be steady
Em Em D D
and think of the dangers of war.
G D/A C D
For when the trumpet sounds I must be ready,
G D G G
oh, wed not the gallant Hussar.”

[Interlude]
