[Verse 1]
[G]As I was walking
one midsummer's morn[D]ing,
[G]To hear the birds whistle [D]and
the [C]nightingale [D]play,
Was [G]there that I met a beautiful maiden,
As I was [C]a walk[G]ing [D]along the highway.

[Verse 2]
[G]Oh where are you going
my fair pretty lady,
[D]Where [G]are you going so ear[C]ly this mor[D]n,
She [G]answered,
kind sir to visit my neighbours,
I'm going down to Lin[C]coln
[D]the place I was [G]born.

[Verse 3]
Oh [G]may I go with you my [C]fair pretty [D]lady,
May [G]I go along in your s[C]weet comp[D]any,
She [G]turned her head round
and smiling all [C]at me,
Said [G]you may come [C]with
me kind [D]sir if [G]you please.

[Verse 4]
We [G]hadn't been walking
a few miles together,
Before this young damsel
[C]began to show [D]free,
She sat [G]her[D]self [G]down saying
sit down be[C]side me,
The [G]game we [C]shall play will [D]be one,
two and [G]three.[C][G][C]

[Verse 5]
I said [D]my dear [G]lady if you're
[C]fond of the gam[D]ing,
There's [G]one game I know I would
[D]like [Am]you t[D]o le[Am]arn,[D]
The game it is [G]called The Game Of All [C]Fours,
So I [G]took out [C]my pack and
[D]began the first [G]turn.

[Verse 6]
[G]She cut the cards and [Am]I fell a dea[D]ling,
I [G]dealt her a trump and my
[C]self [Am]the poor [D]Jack,
She led off here [G]ace and stole
the Jack [C]from me,
Saying [G]Jack is the [C]card I like
[D]best in your pack[G].[C]

[Verse 7]
I dealt [G]the last time, its [C]your turn to [D]shuffle,
[G]My turn to show the best [C]card in [D]the pack,
[Em]Once[D] more sh[Em]e'd the ace[D]
and stole the [G]Jack from [Am]me,
Once [Bm]more [G]I l[Bm]ost w[C]hen
I laid [D]down [G]poor Jack.

[Interlude 1]
[G]

[Verse 8]
So I [G]took up my hat and I
bid her good morning,
I said you're the best that
I [D]know at this game,
She [G]answered, young man,
come back tomorrow,
[C]We'll pla[G]y the game ove[D]r and[Dsus4] over and over[D]
[Dsus4]and over [D]and over again[Dsus4][D]
