Dm Early one mornin’ one E7 mornin’ in Am spring
To Dm hear the birds G7 whistle the C nightingales E7 sing
I Am met a fair G7 maiden who Am sweetly did G7 sing
I’m Am going to be Dm married next E7 Monday mor-Am nin’
Dm How old are you my E7 fair young Am maid
Dm Here in this G7 valley this C valley so E7 green
Am How old are G7 you my Am fair young G7 maid
I’m Am goin’ to be Dm sixteen next E7 Monday mor-Am nin’
Well Dm sixteen years old, that’s E7 too young for to Am marry
So Dm take my ad-G7 vice five years C longer to tar-E7 ry
For Am marriage brings G7 troubles and Am sorrows be-G7 gin
So Am put off your Dm wedding for E7 Monday mor-Am nin’
Dm You talk like a mad man, a E7 man with no Am skill
Two Dm years I’ve been G7 waiting a-C gainst my own E7 will
Am Now I’m de-G7 termined to Am have my own G7 way
And Am I’m goin’ to be Dm married next E7 Monday mor-Am nin’
Dm Next Monday mornin’ the E7 bells they will Am ring
My Dm true love will G7 buy me a C gay golden E7 ring
Am Also he’ll G7 buy me a Am new pretty G7 gown
To Am wear at my Dm wedding next E7 Monday mor-Am nin’
Dm Next Monday night when E7 I go to my Ambed
And Dm I turn G7 round to the C man that I’ve E7 wed
A-Am round his G7 middle my Am two arms I will G fling
And I Am wish to my Dm soul it was E7 Monday mor-Am nin’
