[Verse 1]
[D]A B[C]eau[G]tiful Damsel of Fe[D]minine[G]
A Gentleman's Daughter
from [D]Monaghan Tyre
[G]As she [C]rode by the [D]barrack[C]s,
[G]this beau[D]tiful maid
Sure she [C]stood [D]on her [C]coach
to [D]see the [C]Dragoon Long [G]Parade
They were all dressed [D]up
the like of gen[G]tlemen's sons
With [C]their bright shining [D]glitz
and their carabine [G]guns
Oh, [C]William, dear Willi[G]am,
[D]you've listed too soon
[G]With [C]the[G] thick throiled oil[C]
[D]in the scyl[C]landra [G]guns
Fare ye well in [D]this killin',
I'll leave [G]you [Em]awhile,[G]
And all your fair waters,
[C]and[G] eve[D]ry green isl[G]e,
When the [C]war it is [D]over[C],
[G]we'll re[D]turn in full bloom
And [G]you'll all wel[D]come home,
you're in the skill [G]and [D]dragoon[C][G]
Oh, Flora, dear [D]Flora,
your pardon [G]I c[C]rav[G]e,
Sure, it's now [C]an [D]d ever
that I am your [G]slave,
But your par[C]ents in[D]sult you
both morn, night, and noon
[G]For [C]fea[G]r that you[D] wed
your inner [G]-skillin' [C]druggun[G]
Oh, William, dear [D]William,
don't heed [G]what [C]they say
[G]For childre[C]n their par[D]ents
must always obey
[G]When the [C]war, it is [G]over,
[D]they'll all change their [G]tune
an[C]d t[G]hey'll all welc[D]ome home
there in the [G]skillin' [C]dragoon
[G]Fare ye well in the ski[D]llin'
I'll leave [G]you [C]awhile
[G]And all[C] your fair wa [D]ters
[G]an [D]d every g[C]reen i[D]sle
[G]When the war it [C]is ove[D]r,[G]
[D]we'll return in full bloom
An[C]d y[G]ou'll all w[C]elcome home,
[D]you're in the [C]Scyl[G]lin' Dragon
That's powerful, mate.
Powerful, mate.
