Doc Watson - Handsome Molly Chords

[Intro]
G D G


[Verse 1]
G
I wish I were in London,
                      D
Or some other seaport town
D
Set my foot in a steamboat
                    G
And sail the ocean `round.


[Verse 2]
G
While sailing on the ocean,
                     D
While sailing on the sea
D
I'd think of handsome Molly
                   G
Wherever she might be.

[Verse 3]
G
Remember Handsome Molly
                            D
When you gave me your right hand?
D
And you said if you were to marry
                G
Then I'd be the man.


[Verse 4]
G
But now you broke your promise
                  D
Go marry whom you please
D
While my poor heart is breaking
                     G
You're going at your ease.

[Verse 5]
G
She goes to church on Sunday
                     D
And she passes me on by
D
I can tell her mind is changin'
                     G
By the roving of her eye.


[Verse 6]
G
Her hair is black as a raven
                        D
Her eyes are black as a crow
D
Her cheeks look like linens
                   G
out in the morning glow

While sailing on the sea

Wherever she might be.
