Chord/Tab song: As I Roved Out

INTRO: G C D

As [Am]I roved [C]out one fine May [D]morn[G]ing
To view the [C]mea[G]dows and [Am]flowers [D]gay
Oh, [C]who should I spot, but my [D]own true lo[Am]ver
As [C]she sat by [G]yon [D]willow tree

I took [Am]off my hat and I [C]did sa[D]lute [G]her
I did sa[C]lute [G]her most cou[Am]rageous[D]ly
As she [C]turned around, the [D]tears fell from [Am]her
Saying, "[C]False young man, [G]you've de[D]luded me

And the [Am]diamond ring I be[C]hold, I [D]gave to [G]you
A [C]diamond [G]ring to wear on [Am]your right [D]hand
But the [C]vows you made, love, you [D]went and broke [Am]them
And you [C]wed the lassie who [G]has the [D]land."[G][C][G][Am]

"If I wed the lassie who [C]has the [D]land, my [G]love,
It's that I'll [C]rue '[G]til the [Am]day I [D]die.
When mis[C]fortune falls, sure the [D]man may shun [Am]it,
It [C]was my [G]fault, that I'll [D]not deny"[Am]

INSTRUMENTAL: C G C Am D C D Am C D

"And at [Am]night when I go to my [C]bed of [D]slum[G]ber
The [C]thoughts of my [G]love are [Am]in my [D]mind.
As I [C]turn around to em[D]brace my dar[Am]ling,
Oh, in[C]stead of gold, [G]sure 'tis [D]brass I will find

And I [Am]wish The Queen would bring home [C]all her [D]ar[G]mies
From the [C]West In[G]dies, A[Am]merica and [D]Spain.
And [C]every man to his [D]wedded wo[Am]man
Oh, in [C]hopes that I might [G]be with thee a[D]gain"
