[Intro]
Am G Em7 Am
[Verse 1]
Am D Am Em
As I walked over london bridge one misty morning early
Am G Em Am
I heard some fair young maiden say Lord spare me the life of Georgie
Am D Am Em
Go saddle me up my milk white steed and bridle him so gayly
Am G Em Am
Then I'll ride away to the king´s high court and plead for the life of Georgie"
[Instrumental]
Am G Em7 Am
[Verse 2]
Am D Am Em
She rode all day and she rode all night 'til she was wet and weary
Am G Em Am
Then combing back her long yellow hair she plead for the life of Georgie
Am D Am Em
She pulled out a purse all filled with gold just like you've never seen ma-ny
Am G Em Am
then she said young lawyers fee yourselves and plead for the life of Geor-gie
[Instrumental]
Am G Em7 Am
[Verse 3]
Am D Am Em
Georgie rode up and he plead for himself he says I never murdered an-y,
Am G Em Am
But I stole sixteen of the king´s best steeds and I sold them in romany
Am D Am Em
Then the oldest lawyer at the bar says "George I´m sorry for you,
Am G Em Am
But your own confession condemns you to die, may the Lord have mercy upon you
[Instrumental]
Am Em Am G Em7 Am
[Verse 4]
Am D Am Em
Georgie was a-walking through the streets he bid farewell to ma-ny.
Am G Em Am
Then he bid farewell to his own true love which grieved him worse than any.
Am D Am Em
If I was over on yonder hill, where kisses I´ve had a plenty.
Am G Em Am
With my sword and my pistol by my side I´d fight for the life of Georgie
Am D Am Em
Georgie was hanged with a golden cord just like you´ve never seen many.
Am G Em Am
For he was a member of the royal race, and loved by a virtuous lady
[Outro]
