Pretty Fair Maid In The Garden Chords

(ver. 2)
Tim Obrien
G
Pretty fair maid was in her garden 
       Em       D             G
When a stranger came a-riding by 
              D/F#           Em
He came up to the gate and called her 
                 D                    G
Said pretty fair maid would you be my bride 

G
Said I've a true love who's in the army 
               Em   D              G
And he's been gone for seven long years 
                 D/F#             Em
And if he's gone for seven years longer 
              D                G
I'll still be waiting for him here 

G
Perhaps he's on some watercourse drowning 
             Em D                G
Perhaps he's on some battlefield slain 
                D/F#         Em
Perhaps he's to a fair girl married 
            D              G
And you may never see him again 

G
Well if he's drowned, I hope he's happy 
           Em D                 G
Or if he's on some battlefield slain 
               D/F#            Em
And if he's to some fair girl married 
              D                 G
I'll love the girl that married him 

G
He took his hand out of his pocket 
           Em         D            G
And on his finger he wore a golden ring 
                 D/F#         Em
And when she saw that band a-shining 
            D                   G
A brand new song her heart did sing 

G
And then he threw his arms all around her 
       Em   D               G
Kisses gave her one, two, three 
                   D/F#        Em
Said I'm your true and loving soldier 
                D              G
That's come back home to marry thee 

G
Pretty fair maid was in her garden 
       Em       D             G
When a stranger came a-riding by 
              D/F#           Em
He came up to the gate and called her 
                 D                    G
Said pretty fair maid would you be my bride
