[Verse 1]
[Am]I
was a -walking one [Dm]fine [Am]summer's morning
Birds in the branches did
whistle an[Em]d sing
The [Am]lads and the lasses
together were sporting,
Going down to the [Em]factory their
[F]work to [Am]begi[E]n.[Am]
[Em]I sp[Am]ied one among them
far fairer than any
Her cheeks like the red rose
that [Dm]none [Am]could[Em]
Her skin [Am]like a lily
that grows in Yonge Valley
[E]She's [Am]me own Bonnie Anni[Em]e,
my [F]factory [Am]girl[E][Am]
[Em]I st[Am]epped up to her,
thinking to view her,
And upon me she cast a
proud look of [Em]disdain,
Saints [Am]that love thee,
O man, do not insult me,
For although I am [Ebm]poor,
[Em]I th[F]ink it no sh[Am]ame.[Esus4][Am][E]
[Em]Oh, [Am]it's not true, it's of you,
fair maid, I adore you.
Oh, pray grant me one favour,
[Dm]when did [Em]the world
I [Am]am sad, please forgive me,
it's now I must leave you
For I hear the dumb [Em]sound
of [Am]the factory bell
Now love is a thing
that doth rule every nation
Good morning, kind sir
and I hope you do [Em]well
My friend[Am]s and relations
would all frown upon it
And besides,
I'm a [Em]hard -working [F]factory [Am]girl
[Em]Now it's t[Am]rue I do love her,
but now she won't have me
And for her sake I'll wander
through valley and [Em]vale
And [Am]for her sake I'll wander
where no -one can find me
And I'll die for the sake of
[Am]my f[F]actory g[Am]irl
[Am]An d[E] I'll di[Am]e for the sake
of my [F]fact[Em]ory [Am]girl.
