Capo: 2nd fret
[Intro]
Am Em Am F G Am Dm7 G Am F Am G D
[Chorus]
Am G/A Am
I'm a four loom weaver, as many a man knows
D Am
Nowt to eat and I've worn out my clothes
G Am D Am
Clogs are both broken and stockings I've none
C G D Am
Hardly give me tuppence for all I've got on
[Verse]
D Am
Old Billy at Bent, he kept telling me long
D Am
We might have better times if I'd but held my tongue
G Am D Am
Holded my tongue 'til I near lost my breath
F G D
And I feel in my heart that I'll soon starve to death
[Chorus]
Am G/A Am
I'm a four loom weaver, as many a man knows
D Am
Nowt to eat and I've worn out my clothes
G Am D Am
Clogs are both broken and stockings I've none
C G D Am
Hardly give me tuppence for all I've got on
[Verse]
D Am
We held out for six weeks, thought each day was the last
D Am
We tarried and shifted 'til now we're quite fast
G Am D Am
We lived upon nettles when nettles were good
F G D
Waterloo Porridge was best of our food
[Chorus]
Am G/A Am
I'm a four loom weaver, as many a man knows
D Am
Nowt to eat and I've worn out my clothes
G Am D Am
Clogs are both broken and stockings I've none
C G D Am
Hardly give me tuppence for all I've got on
[Instrumental]
Am Em Am F G Am Dm7 G Am F Am G D
[Verse]
Am D Am
Our Margaret declares if she'd clothes to put on
D Am
She'd go up to London and see the great man
G Am D Am
Things didn't alter when there she had been
F G D F G
She swears she'll fight with blood up to thine
[Chorus]
Am G/A Am
I'm a four loom weaver, as many a man knows
D Am
Nowt to eat and I've worn out my clothes
G Am D Am
Clogs are both broken and stockings I've none
C G D Am
Hardly give me tuppence for all I've got on
[Verse]
D Am
I'm a four loom weaver as many a man knows
D Am
Nowt to eat and I've worn out my clothes
G Am D Am
Stockings I've none and no looms to weave on
F G D
I've woven myself to the far end
F G D
Yes, I've woven myself to the far end
F G D
I've woven myself to the far end
F G D
Woven myself to the far end
[Outro]
Am Em Am F G Am Dm7 G Am F Am G D
