verse 1 
D     G      D         G     D    A 
  Oh Peggy Gordon you are my darling, 
      G      D             A     
Come sit you down upon my knee, 
      G      D       G   D   A 
Come tell to me the very reason, 
    G     D       A      D 
Why I am slighted,so by thee, 

verse 2 
   G      D          G        D  A 
I wish I was in some lonesome valley, 
      G      D             A     
where woman kind cannot be found, 
            G      D              G          D   A 
Where the pretty small birds,do change their voices, 
     G     D           A      D 
and every moment a different sound. 

verse 3 
   G      D          G     D    A 
Im so in love that I cant deny it, 
     G           D             A     
my heart lies smothered in my breast, 
        G        D      G       D         A 
But its not for you to let the world know it, 
    G       D        A       D 
a troubled mind can know no rest. 

verse 4   
   G          D         G      D   A 
I did put my head to a cask of brandy, 
    G      D             A     
it was my fancy I do declare, 
      G      D             G      D   A 
For when im drinking I am always thinking, 
      G      D      A         D 
and wishing Peggy Gordon was here.
