[Intro 1]
[Asus4][D][Gsus2][G][A][Asus4][G][A]

[Verse 1]
I [A]am [Asus4]a
[D]youth that's in[G]clined [Asus4]to ramble[A]
To some [Asus4]for eign [G]count[Asus4]ry,
I mean to [G]steer[A]
I am loath [Asus4]to part f[D]rom my friend
[G]s a[Asus4]nd comrad[A]es
And my [Asus4]dear sweetheart,
whom I [A]loved dear

[Verse 2]
But [A]there's one of [Em]those,
[D]I do m[G]ost adm[Asus4]ire[A]
[Asus4]One her,
I'll [Em]think [D]when I'm [G]far [A]away
For [Em]since fates de[D]creed,
I [G]am re[Em]solved [D]to part her
And try my fortune [G]in[Asus4]
[A]Americay

[Verse 3]
[A]So farewell, [Em]darling, [D]I m[G]ust leav[D]e you
I place great dependence [G]on
your con[A]stancy
That no [Em]other [D]young man
may [G]gain your [D]favor
Or change your mind when
[G]I a[Asus4]m over the sea[A]

[Verse 4]
For [A]although [Em]the seas [D]do
[G]separ[A]ate [Asus4]us[A]
And in [Em]between us, [D]they do [G]rise and [A]fall
If [Em]fortune [D]fa vors [G]me you'll
find your [D]Jamie
Returning [G]homeward [Em]from[D][G]
[A]Ame[Em]ri ca[F#m]y[D][G][A]
[Asus4]Oh

[Verse 5]
[A]Jam[Asus4]ie dear,[A][Asus4]
do [G]you re[A]member
When I [G]sat [Asus4]with you[D]
for [Asus4]many the hour[A]
And my young [G]fancy[Asus4]
away [G]was car[A]ried
And the bees [Asus4]hummed ar[D]ound on
[Asus4]each opening flow[A]er

[Verse 6]
But [A]when you're [Asus4]cross[Em]
[D]ing the [G]western [A]ocean
The maid that [Em]loved you,
[D]you'll never [G]mind [A]eva'
And you'll [Em]scarce [D]ever think
[G]upon [Em]the maids [D]of Erin
For you'll find strange sweet[G]hearts in Amer[Em]ica

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][A]
[Em][D][G][A][Asus4][A][Em][D][G][A]
[Em][D][G][A]
Oh [Asus4]Mary

[Verse 7]
dear,
[D]I don[G]'t dissem[A]ble
For to all other [Asus4]fair maid[D]s,
[G]I'll prove [Asus4]untrue[A][Asus4][A]
And if you [Em]think [D]that these
[G]are [D]false promise
I'll leave these vows [G]as
[Asus4]a pledge [G]to you
[A]

[Verse 8]
That what [G]I h[Em]ave m[D]ay
prove [G]unsuc[A]cessful
And fortune [Em]prove to [D]me a [G]slippery [A]ball
That a [Em]favoring [D]gale [G]it
may [Em]never [D]blow on me
If forsake [G]you in America
[A]

[Verse 9]
And to con[Em]clude[Asus4]
[D]and to end[G] these ver[D]ses
May God [G]protect this young female [A]fair
And keep [Em]her f[D]rom every
[G]wild embar[D]rassment
And of, my darling, [G]take [Asus4]the greatest care
[A]

[Verse 10]
For she's slow to [Em]anger [D]and
of [G]kind dis[A]position
And her cheeks like [Em]roses [D]in [G]June do [A]blow
In my [Em]nightly [D]slumber[G]s
when ever I [D]think on her
I could court her vision [G]in Amer[Em]ica
