Biography:
The Kingston Trio is an American folk group that helped launch the folk revival of the 1960s and continued to thrive despite the emergence of rock and roll.
The Kingston Trio was formed in 1957 in the Palo Alto, California area by original lineup of Dave Guard (1934–1991), Bob Shane (1934–2020), and Nick Reynolds (1933–2008), who were just out of college. Greatly influenced by The Weavers, the calypso sounds of Harry Belafonte, and other semi-popular folk artists such as the Gateway Singers and the Tarriers

[Intro]
G
[Verse]
Am
Oh, Mary, this London's a wonderful sight
D G
With people here working by day and by night
C
They don't sow potatoes nor barley nor wheat
D G Am G
But there's gangs of them diggin' for gold in the street
[Verse]
C G
At least when I asked them, that's what I was told
D
So I just took a hand at this diggin' for gold
G C
But for all that I found there, I might as well be
D G
Where the Mountains O'Mourne sweep down to the sea
[Verse]
Am
I believe that when writing, a wish you expressed
D G
As to how the fine ladies in London were dressed
C
Well, if you'll believe me, when asked to a ball
D G Am G
They don't wear no top to their dresses at all
[Verse]
C G
Oh, I've seen them meself and you could not in truth
D
Say that if they were bound for a ball or a bath
G C
Don't be startin' them fashions, now, Mary McCree
D G
Where the Mountains O'Mourne sweep down to the sea
[Verse]
Am
There's beautiful girls here, oh, never you mind
D G
With beautiful shapes nature never designed
C
Lovely complexions, all roses and cream
D G
But let me remark with regard to the same
[Verse]
C G
That if at those roses you venture to sip
D
The colours might all come away on your lip
G C
So, I'll wait for the wild rose that's waitin' for me
D G
In the place where the dark Mourne sweeps down to the sea
G
