Foggy Foggy Dew Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Whe[A]n I[D] was a bachelor
I lived by my[G]self
I [A]worked at [D]a weaver's trade
And the only,
only thing I did that was wrong
Was to woo [A]a f[D]air young maid
[A]I wooed h[C#m]er in the[A] sum[D]mertime
An[A]d in the winter t[D]oo
And the only,
only thing I did that was wrong
Was to keep her [A]from the foggy,
[D]foggy dew
One night she knelt close by my side
[A]When I was [D]fast asleep
She threw her arms around my neck
And then [A]she [D]began to weep
She [A]wept, she cried, she [D]tore her hair.
[A]Ah me, wha[D]t could I do?
So all night long I held her in my [Eb]arms,
[D]Just to kee[A]p her from the foggy,
[D]foggy dew.
Again I'm a bachelor,
I live with my son,
We work [A]at a [D]weaver's trade.
And every, every time
that I look into his eyes,
He [A]reminds me [D]of a fair young maid.
He [A]reminds me of [D]the summertime,
[A]And of [D]the winter, too,
And of the many, many times
That I held her in my arm[G]s,
[D]Just to keep [A]her from the foggy, foggy [D]doom.
