[Verse 1]
   C          F            Dm         Am    AmAs I went out walking, one morning in June
   F             C           F              C          CTo view the fair fields, and the valleys in bloom;
  F              C                F              C         CI spied a pretty fair maid, she a-ppeared like a queen,
G7         Am          F             Dm        AmWith - her costly fine robes and her mantle so green

     C           F              Dm         Am       AmSays she, now my young man, you must be ex-cused,
    F             C              F          C          CFor I'll wed with no man, so you must be re-fused;
       F                  C          F              C       CTo the green woods I will wander and shun all men's view
G7        Am         F              Dm          AmFor - the boy I love dearly lies in famed Water-loo.

  F              C            F              C          CI fought in that battle, so I might know the same.
     F          C            F              C        CDraw near to my garment, and there you will see

     C            F            Dm           Am      AmSo I smiled on my Nancy, 'twas I broke your heart,
   F            C            F          C          CIn your fathers garden, that day we did part
