[Intro]

C A C G

[Verse 1]

C
Blackjack Davy came ridin through the woods

C A7
Singing so loud and gaily

C
Made the hills around him ring

C G
And he charmed the heart of a lady

G C
Charmed the heart of a lady

[Verse 2]

C
How old are you, my pretty little miss

C A7
How old are you my honey

C
She answered him with a silly little smile

C G
I'll be thirty two next Sunday

G C
Be twenty four next Sunday

[Verse 3]

C
Come go with my pretty little miss

C A7
Go with me my honey

C
I'll take you cross the deep blue see

C G
Where you never shall want for money

G C
You never gonna want for any money

[Verse 4]

C
She pulled off her high heel shoes

C A7
Made of the prettiest leather

C
Put on her travelin boots

C G
And they road off together

G C
They road off together

[Verse 5]
