[Intro] AmGEm7Am
[Verse 1] AmDAmEm As I walked over london bridge one misty morning early AmGEmAm I heard some fair young maiden say Lord spare me the life of Georgie AmDAmEm Go saddle me up my milk white steed and bridle him so gayly AmGEmAm Then I'll ride away to the king´s high court and plead for the life of Georgie"
[Instrumental] AmGEm7Am
[Verse 2] AmDAmEm She rode all day and she rode all night 'til she was wet and weary AmGEmAm Then combing back her long yellow hair she plead for the life of Georgie AmDAmEm She pulled out a purse all filled with gold just like you've never seen ma-ny AmGEmAm then she said young lawyers fee yourselves and plead for the life of Geor-gie
[Instrumental] AmGEm7Am
[Verse 3] AmDAmEm Georgie rode up and he plead for himself he says I never murdered an-y, AmGEmAm But I stole sixteen of the king´s best steeds and I sold them in romany AmDAmEm Then the oldest lawyer at the bar says "George I´m sorry for you, AmGEmAm But your own confession condemns you to die, may the Lord have mercy upon you
[Instrumental] AmEmAmGEm7Am
[Verse 4] AmDAmEm Georgie was a-walking through the streets he bid farewell to ma-ny. AmGEmAm Then he bid farewell to his own true love which grieved him worse than any. AmDAmEm If I was over on yonder hill, where kisses I´ve had a plenty. AmGEmAm With my sword and my pistol by my side I´d fight for the life of Georgie AmDAmEm Georgie was hanged with a golden cord just like you´ve never seen many. AmGEmAm For he was a member of the royal race, and loved by a virtuous lady
