Lyrics
[VERSE 1]
[Am]As I roved out on a May morning
[Am]On a May morning right early
I s[C]pied my love [G]upon the way
Oh, Lord but she was e[Am]arly.

[Am]Her boots were black, her stockings white
[Am]And her buckles shone like silver
She h[C]ad a dark and a ro[G]ving eye
And her ear-rings touched her sho[Am]ulder.

[CHORUS]
And she sang
[C]
lith-a-doo-a, lith-a-doo-a lith-a-doo-a-dee,
And she h[G]igh-di-lan-di-dee,

and she high-di-lan-di-dee and
[Am]she lan-ded x2
[Am]she lan-ded

[VERSE 2]
[Am]"How old are you my bonny, wee girl?
[Am]How old are you my Darling?
How o[C]ld are you my bonny, w[G]ee girl?"
"I’ll be seventeen on Su[Am]nday.”

[Am]I went to her house on the top of the hill
[Am]When the moon was shining clearly.
She ar[C]ose to let me [G]in
But her mother chanced to hear [Am]me.

[CHORUS]
And she sang
[C]
lith-a-doo-a, lith-a-doo-a lith-a-doo-a-dee,
And she h[G]igh-di-lan-di-dee,

and she high-di-lan-di-dee and
[Am]she lan-ded x2
[Am]she lan-ded

[VERSE 3]
[Am]She grabbed her by the hair of her head
[Am]And out of the room she brought her,
And w[C]ith the root of a ha[G]zel branch
She was a well-beat dau[Am]ghter.

[Am]"Will you marry me now my soldier boy
[Am]Will you marry me now or never?
Will you ma[C]rry me now my sol[G]dier boy
Can you see I’m done fo[Am]rever.”

[Am]"Well I won’t marry you my bonny wee girl,
[Am]I won’t marry you my Darling.
For [C]I have got a w[G]ife at home
And how could I diso[Am]wn her?”

[CHORUS]
And she sang
[C]
lith-a-doo-a, lith-a-doo-a lith-a-doo-a-dee,
And she h[G]igh-di-lan-di-dee,

and she high-di-lan-di-dee and
[Am]she lan-ded x2

[VERSE]
[Am]A pint at night is my delight
[Am]And a gallon in the morning.
The old wo[C]men are [G]my heart break
But the young ones are my da[Am]rlings.

[Am]As I roved out on a May morning
[Am]On a May morning right early
I s[C]pied my love up[G]on the way
Oh, Lord but she was e[Am]arly.

[CHORUS]
And she sang
[C]
lith-a-doo-a, lith-a-doo-a lith-a-doo-a-dee,
And she h[G]igh-di-lan-di-dee,

and she high-di-lan-di-dee and
[Am]she lan-ded x3
[Am]she lan-ded
