Verse 1
E
G#m
When I was a kid, a long time ago,
E
I heard a song that I love dearly.
B
E
It's called My True Love,
Golden Hair,
or even Locks and Bolts.
The principle,
I guess, is like that of the fellow
G#m
who went to the woman down in the southern
E
mountains
and said, Mother, I want to marry
Bessie Hatchel
G#m
from down the way.
E
And the mother says, You do?
Is she a virgin, son?"
And he said, Yes,
mother, she is.
And she says, Well, we can't marry then,
because if she ain't good
enough for her folks,
B
E
she ain't good enough for ours. Well...
A
And so on this song, for some reason,
E
in the old ballad, the young man was not supposed to marry the young girl,
B
but he married her. Oh,
E
let me tell you of my love,
B
E
she is a lovely sweet one,
G#m
she is the darling of my life,
A
B
has made it a complete one.
E
B
G#m
Me and my love lay down to rest
A
All on a summer's day
B
E
G#m
When I awoke, I was alone
F
E
My love was stolen away
B
E
I followed to her father's house,
B
E
followed for my dear.
G#m
The servant said, on every hand,
A
B
Oh no, she is not here.
E
G#m
And then I heard her own soft voice
A
B
come from the highest window.
E
Oh, love, dear love,
G#m
I would come down,
A
F#m
B
but a lock and bolts do hinder.
E
B
E
My anger flew, my sword I drew,
B
E
into that house I'd enter.
Her father and three armoured men
G#m
A
Gainst me that door did hinder
B
E
G#m
With angry cry I raised my sword
A
E
And at them I did batter
B
E
And so with fear they all fell back
G#m
F#m
E
And through that house did scatter
G#m
I took my love into my arms,
A
E
to my breast I hold her.
B
E
Her lovely hair, like golden strings,
G#m
E
F
G#m
B
come twisting down my shoulder.
E
And all you men who love a girl
and someone soon would
E
hinder must do as I,
for my true love,
A
E
though locks and bolts should bar you.
Thank you. Thanks. Thank you. Thank you.
