Key: 
[INTRO:] D

[VERSE 1:]

  C          G      D
A fine young man it was indeed

   C                G          D
He mounted upon his milk white steed

   C        G        D         G
He rode, he rode, himself all alone

  C      G       D
Until he came to Lovely Joan


[VERSE 2:]

      C       G      D
"Good morning to you my pretty maid"

     C                   G        
And "Twice good morning, sir" she 

D
said

   C              G         D    
He tipped her the wink, she 

         G
rolled a dark eye

     C        G              D
Said he to himself, "I'll be there 
by and by"


[VERSE 3:]

     C         G           D
"Oh, don't you think these pooks of 
hay

  C      G               D
A pretty place for us to play

   C         G     D           G
So come with me my sweet young thing

    C         G             D
And I'll give you my golden ring"


[VERSE 4:]

     C         G               D
Then he pulled off his ring of gold

    C                          G  
"My pretty little miss, do you 

    D
this behold

     C      G              
I'll freely give it for your 

  D     G
maidenhead"

    C           G                
Her cheeks they blushed like the 

D
roses red

[VERSE 5:]

      C       G      D
"Give me that ring into my hand

    C              G        D
And I will neither stay nor stand

    C          G       D       G
For this would do more good to me

     C      G     D
Than twenty maidenheads" said she


[VERSE 6:]

    C     G            D
And as he made for the pooks of hay

    C                       G  
She leaped on his horse and tore 

   D
away

   C          G              D   
He called, he called, but it was 

       G
all in vain

    C         G            D
For Joan, she never looked back 
again


[VERSE 7:]

    C       G        D
Nor did she think herself quite safe

C                        G 
Not till she came to her true 

           D
lover's gate

      C          G      D         
She's robbed him of his horse and 

G
ring

    C           G           D
And left him to rage in the meadows 
green
