[Intro]

[Verse 1]
G D7 G
One morning, one morning, one morning in May,
G D7 G
I spied a fair couple, inquiring their way.
G C G
They stood and concluded to go by the spring
C G C D7 G
To... see the waters glide and hear the nightingale sing
[Verse 2]
G D7 G
He hugged her and he kissed her and he caught her 'round the middle
G D7 G
And out of his knapsack he drew a fine fiddle
G C G
And he played her a tune of the voluntary
C G C D7 G
Oh... see the waters gliding, hear the nightingale sing
[Verse 3]
G D7 G
Pretty soldier, pretty soldier, won't you marry me?
G D7 G
Oh no pretty lady, that never can be
G C G
I've got a wife at home, and children I've three
C G C D7 G
And... the prettiest little baby you ever did see
[Verse 4]
G D7 G
I'll go to Kentucky and stay there for a year
G D7 G
Instead of cold water my drink shall be beer
G C G
And when I come back it'll be in the spring
C G C D7 G
And... I'll play that tune over and over again
C G C D7 G
To... see the waters glide and hear the nightingale sing
