Tom: B major
Verse 1
Maids are a -shining over
Valley and
Town
There once was a young girl,
her name it was
Miss
Brown
A young man came a -courting
her dear for to be
And he was my trader ship's carpenter,
was he?
Well the king,
needed sailors four to go off to sea
This made the young maiden
to cry and to say
William, oh
William, do not leave me here.
Remember the vows you
have made to your dear.
But it was early the next morning
C
G
before it was day
He's gone to his
Polly, these words he did say
Polly, oh
D
Polly, you must come along with me
D
C
G
my friends, for to see
Then he's led her through the groves
and through the valleys so deep
This caused poor
Polly to cry and to weep
William, oh
William, you've led me astray
C
G
On purpose to take my own sweet life away
No pardon will I give you
and there's no time to stand
And there in a moment drew
a knife with his hand
He stabbed her poor body
till red blood did flow
And into her grave her
C
G
poor body did throw
Then he's covered her
body so safe and secure
He thought none would find her,
of that he was sure
Then he went on board ship
to sail the world around
Before that his murder would ever be found
It was early one morning
C
G
before it was day
The captain came to him,
these words he did say
There's a murderer on board
and it's lately been done
Our ship, she's in mourn
D
C
D
G
ing and cannot sail on
And up stepped one sailor,
indeed sanitised
And up -stepped one other, indeed, sir, not
C
I,
William to storm -cast and swear,
Indeed, sir, not
C
G
I, sir, I vow and declare.
And as he was a -turning from the
captain with speed
He's met pretty
Polly, it's made his
heart bleed
She's ripped him,
she's stripped him, she's
I tore him in three,
crying that's all the matter of my baby and me.
