[Verse 1]
When [D]life is a bachelor
Oh, how bold [A]I f[D]ollowed
the [G]roving [D]train
[Asus4]The only [A]thin[D]g[A][Asus4]
[A]that I [D]ever done wrong
[G]Was I c[D]ourted the han[A]dsom[Bm]e mai[D]d
I would have rolled the summer time
And parted the [G]winter [D]too
[A]The [D]only [Asus4]harm that[A] ever I'[D]d done[G]
Was [D]to keep [A]off [D]the foggy [Bm]dew[D][G]
[D]T 'was all one night
about twelve o 'clock
As I lay [G]fast [D]asleep
[Asus4]There cam[D]e t[A]his[D]
[Asus4]maiden to[D] my bedside
[Em]and [G]bit [Bm]terly[G][D]
[G]she'd been [D]weak
She wept, she moaned,
she tore her hair
and she cried, what shall [G]I d[D]o?[Asus4]
[D]So I rolled her into [A]bed,[Asus4][A]
[D]and I covered up her head
[G]for the keep of [D]the foggy dew[G][D]
Well, all the first part, all that night,
her weaned in [G]sports and [D]play
And all the latter part of that night
[G]Snug in [Bm]my arms [D]sh[A]e la[D]y
And when the broad daylight appeared
She cried, I [G]am all [D]done
Well, howl your tone, my pretty old girl,
[G]for the[Bm] foggy dew[D] has gone[G]
[D][G][D]
[Bm][D][G][D][G][D]
Well, I never told nobody her name
And it's dummy [G]if [D]I do
[A]But it's [D]often [A]times that
I [D]think on that night
[G]That I kep[A]t off the[D] foggy dew
