Old Maid in the Garret - Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem - tab by wompton
[VERSE 1]
G
Now I've often heard it said from me father and me mother
D C G
That going to a wedding is the making of another
G C G
Well, if this be so, then I’ll go without a biddin
D
O kind providence, won't you send me to a wedding
[CHORUS]
G C G C
And its O dear me, how would it be,
G D G
if I die an old maid in a garret
[VERSE 2]
G
Well, there's my sister Jean, she's not handsome or good-looking
D C G
Scarcely sixteen and a fella she was courting
G C G
Now she’s twenty-four with a son and a daughter
D
Here am I at forty-five and I've never had an offer
[CHORUS]
G C G C
And its O dear me, how would it be,
G D G
if I die an old maid in a garret
[VERSE 3]
G
I can cook and I can sew and I can keep the house right tidy
D C G
Rise up in the morning and get the breakfast ready
G C G
There's nothing in this wide world would make me half so cheery
D
As a wee fat man who would call me his own deary
[CHORUS]
G C G C
And its O dear me, how would it be,
G D G
if I die an old maid in a garret
[VERSE 4]
G
So come landsman or come pinsman, come tinker or come tailor
D C G
Come fiddler or come dancer, come ploughboy or come sailor
G C G
Come rich man, come poor man, come fool or come witty
D
Come any man at all that will marry me for pity
[CHORUS]
G C G C
And its O dear me, how would it be,
G D G
if I die an old maid in a garret
[VERSE 5]
G
Well now I'm away home for nobody's heeding
D C G
Nobody's heeding and to poor Annie’s pleading
G C G
I'll go away home to my own bitty garret
D
If I can't get a man, then I'll have to get a parrot
[CHORUS]
