Blackwater Side Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]One evening[D] fair to take the air
Down by Blackwater side
It was gazing all, all [D]around me
Towards the [C]Ir [D]ish lad I [D]spied

[Verse 2]
All through [D]the first part of that night
Well, we lie in sport and play
Then this young man,
[D]he arose and gathered his clothes
He said, "Fare thee well
today"
[D]

[Verse 3]
Well, that's not the promise
that you gave to me
When first you lay on my bed
You could make me believe
with your lying tongue
That the [C]sun [D]rose in the west
[D]

[Verse 4]
Then go home,
[D]go home to your father's garden
You go home and weep your fill
And you think of your own
[D]misfortune
That you brought with your
wanton will
[D]

[Verse 5]
For there's not a girl in this
whole world wide
As eas[D]ily led as I
Sure, it's fishes they'll fly
[D]and the seas run dry
Tis then you'll marry [D]I
