[Intro 1]
[D][G][A][D][A][D]
[G][Gm][G][D][Bm][G][D]

[Verse 1]
When [D]I was a bachelor, young and bold
[A]I f[D]ollowed t[G]he roving t[D]rail[Asus4]
[A]The [D]only [A]thing [Asus4]that I[A]
[D]ever done [G]wrong
[D]I courted a [A]hand[Bm] som[D]e maid

[Verse 2]
I [D]wooed her all the summertime
And part [G]of the winter [D]too[A]
The [D]only [Asus4]harm that[A] ever I [D]done
[G]Was to [D]keep off[A] the[D] foggy
[Bm]dew[D]
[G]

[Verse 3]
[D]
'Twas on one night about twelve o'clock
As I lay [G]fast [D]asleep
[Asus4]There cam[D]e t[A]his[D]
[Asus4]maid to m[D]y bedside[Em]
[G]An [Bm]d bit[G] te[D]rly sh[G]e did we[D]ep

[Verse 4]
She [D]wept, she moaned,
she tore her hair
And she cried, "What [G]shall I [D]do?"[Asus4]
[D]So I rolled her into [A]bed[Asus4]
[A]and[D] I covered up her head
[G]For to keep off[D] the foggy dew
[G]

[Verse 5]
[D]
Well, all the first part of that night
And we did [G]sport an[D]d play
And all the latter part of that night
[G]Snug in [Bm]my arms [D]sh[A]e la[D]y

[Verse 6]
And [D]when the broad daylight appeared
She cried, "I [G]am un[D]done"
Well, hold your tongue, my pretty young girl
[G]For the[Bm] foggy dew[D] has gon[G]e
[D]

[Interlude 1]
[G][D]
[Bm][D][G][D][G][D]

[Verse 7]
Well, [D]I never told nobody her name
And it's damned [G]be if [D]I d[A]o
But it's [D]of [A]ten times that I
[D]think on that [G]night
That I [A]kept off [D]the foggy dew
