There was a lord lived in this town

She was courted by a fine young man,

But when her parents came to know,
D

They swore they'd drive him

If she should part from

Straightway unto his room she goes
A
D
Into his room him to awaken
G
D

A

In spite of me he would transport you.
D
G
D
So I rise and go,
G
D
G
my own true love,
A
D
I wish to God I'd gone before you.
G
D
Ah, must I go, he said to her,
G
A
Ah, must I go without my wages,
D
With ne 'er a penny in my purse,
G
Just like some poor for
A
D
lorn stranger.
A
Here's fifty guineas in bright gold,
D
G
A
D
And that's far more than father owes you.
G
D
So arise and go, my own true love
G
A

They both sat down upon the bed
G
A
Just side by side for one half hour
D
G

And not a word did either say,
G
But down their cheeks
A

D
G
A
As round his waist her arms entwined.
D

For him her heart was still entwined.

She's brought him back
G

to the church they went,
G
And she's made a lord of
D
A

young Matthew. you
