Liam Clancy - Foggy Foggy Dew


CAPO: 1st Fret



[INTRO:] C F C

[VERSE 1:]
G C G
When I was a bachelor, I lived all alone
C F C
I worked at the weaver's trade
G C G
And all the harm that ever I've done
C F C
It was courting a serving maid


[VERSE 2:]
F C
I courted her one winter's morn
G
A summer's day or two
C G C G
And I often times wished her into my arms
C F C G C G
Out of the foggy dew, dew, dew
C F C
And out of the foggy dew


[VERSE 3:]
G C G
One night she came to my bedside
C F C
As I lay fast asleep
G C G
She laid her head upon my bed
C F C
And bitterly she did weep


[VERSE 4:]
F C
She wept, she cried, she tore her hair
G
Saying, "Oh, what shall I do?
C G C G
For this night I'm resolved to sleep with you
C F C G C G
For fear of the foggy dew, dew, dew
C F C
For fear of the foggy dew"


[VERSE 5:]
G C G
So all the fore part of the night
C F C
How we did sport and play
G C G
All the latter part of the night
C F C
She close in my arms did lay


[VERSE 6:]
F C
And when the daylight did appear
G
She said, "I am undone"
C G C G
Said I, "Fair mad, be not afraid
C F C G C G
For the foggy dew is done, done, done
C F C F C
Oh, the foggy dew is done


[VERSE 7:]
G C G
One night she started to moan and to cry
C F C
Said I, "What troubles you?"
G C G
She said, "I'd never have been this way
C F C
If it hadn't have been for you"


[VERSE 8:]
F C
I got me boots and me trousers on
G
I called my neighbour too
C G C G
Ah, but do what we could, we could do her no good
C F C G C G
And she died in the foggy dew, dew, dew
C F C
Oh, she died in the foggy dew


[VERSE 9:]
G C G
So, now I am a bachelor, I live with my son
C F C
We work at the weaver's trade
G C G
And when I look in his face I can see
C F C
The eyes of that fair young maid


[VERSE 10:]
F C
He reminds me of the winter time
G
And of the summer too
C G C G
And the many, many times she lay in my arms
C F C G C G
For fear of the foggy dew, dew, dew
C F C
All for fear of the foggy dew
