Lord Gregory Chords & Lyrics - Judy Collins

CAPO: 5th Fret

[VERSE 1]
I [C]am a queen's daughter, I come from Aber[Bb]deen
In [C]search of Lord Gregory, pray [D]god I find [G]him
The [C]rain beats on my yellow head, the dew wets my [Bb]skin
My [C]wee babe's cold in my arms, Lord [D]Gregory, let me [G]in

[VERSE 2]
Lord [C]Gregory, he is not here, I swear, can't be [Bb]seen
He's [C]gone to bonny Scotland for to [D]bring home a fair [G]queen
So [C]leave now these portals and likewise this [Bb]hall
For it's [C]deep in the sea, you should [D]find you down[G]fall

[VERSE 3]
Oh, [C]don't you remember, love, that night in Aber[Bb]deen
When [C]we exchanged rings, love, and [D]I against my [G]will
[C]Yours was pure silver and mine was but [Bb]tin
[C]Yours cost a guinea and [D]mine but a [G]pin

[VERSE 4]
My [C]curse on you, Mother, my curse being [Bb]sore
I [C]dreamed that my true love come a [D]knocking at the [G]door
Lie [C]down now, my foolish son, lie down and [Bb]sleep
Twas [C]only a servant girl lies [D]drowned in the [G]deep

[VERSE 5]
Go [C]saddle my black horse, the brown or the [Bb]bay
Go [C]saddle the fastest horse in my [D]stable this [G]day
I'll [C]ride over mountains and valleys so [Bb]wide
I'll [C]find the girl that I love and [D]ride by her [G]side
