[Verse 1]
     Am       C            
When I was in service in the 
  G        Am
Rosemary Lane
  Am           Am         G   
I won the good will of my master 
     D    | D    |
Amberdine
       Am          Am        G   
Till a sailor came there one 
     D    | D    |
night to lay
    Am             C          G  
And that was the beginning of my 
    Am    | Am    | Am    | Am    |
misery


[Verse 2]
   Am           C         G      
He called for a candle to light 
      Am
him to bed
    Am          Am             G 
Likewise a silk hankerchief to 
         D    | D    |
tie up his hair
   Am         Am      G           
To tie up his hair as sailors will
 D    | D    |
 do
     Am              C            
"And third my pretty Polly, won't 
G        Am    | Am    | Am    | 
you come too?"
Am    |



Continues after the ad
[Verse 3]
     Am               C            
This may be young and foolish, she 
G             Am
thought it no harm
   Am       Am         G         
To lie into bed but to keep 
   D    | D    |
herself warm
    Am            Am          
And what was done there, I will 
  G        D    | D    |
never disclose
      Am              C           
But I wish that short night had 
   G          Am    | Am    | Am  
been seven long years
  | Am    |

[Verse 4]
     Am           C         G     
Next morning this sailor so early 
 Am
arose
    Am       Am     G           
And into my apron 3 guineas did 
D    | D    |
throw
        Am          Am       G   
Saying "This I will give and more
        D    | D    |
 I will do
          Am           C   
If you'll be my pretty Polly 
     G       Am    | Am    | Am    
wherever I go"
| Am    |



[Verse 5]
    Am        C          G       
And if it's a boy, he'll fight 
      Am
for the King
    Am        Am            G    
And if it's a girl she will wear 
       D    | D    |
a gold ring
Am          Am         G         
Wear a gold ring and a dress all 
 D    | D    |
aflame
      Am        C            
And remember my service in the
