D     G      D         G     D    A
  Oh Peggy Gordon you are my darling,
      G      D             A    
Come sit you down upon my knee,
      G      D       G   D   A
Come tell to me the very reason,
    G     D       A      D
Why I am slighted,so by thee,

[VERSE 2]
   G      D          G        D  A
I wish I was in some lonesome valley,
      G      D             A    
where woman kind cannot be found,
            G      D              G          D   A
Where the pretty small birds,do change their voices,
     G     D           A      D
and every moment a different sound.

[VERSE 3]
   G      D          G     D    A
Im so in love that I cant deny it,
     G           D             A    
my heart lies smothered in my breast,
        G        D      G       D         A
But its not for you to let the world know it,
    G       D        A       D
a troubled mind can know no rest.

[VERSE 4]  
   G          D         G      D   A
I did put my head to a cask of brandy,
    G      D             A    
it was my fancy I do declare,
      G      D             G      D   A
For when im drinking I am always thinking,
      G      D      A         D
and wishing Peggy Gordon was here.
