The Light Dragoon

  C
A light dragoon came over the hill
C
When the moon was shining clearly
      F                                         C
There was a little lady and she knew him by his horse
  F         G         C                  F
Because she loved him dearly, dearly, so dearly
      Dm7                       C
There was a little lady and she knew him by his horse
  F         G         C
Because she loved him dearly

[Verse]
C
She's taken him by the nearside rein
C
Led him to the stable
        F                                  C
"Here's corn and hay for your horse, young man
       F         G     C              F
He can eat while he is able, able, so able
       Dm7                   C
Here's corn and hay for your horse, young man
       F         G     C
He can eat while he is able"

[Verse]
C
She's taken him by the lily-white hand
C
Led him to the table
      F                          C
"It's cakes and wine for you, my dear
        F           G       C              F
You can drink while you are able, able, so able
     Dm7                C
It's cakes and wine for you, my dear

        F           G       C
You can drink while you are able"

[Verse]
C
She's gone upstairs to make his bed
C
Make it soft and comfy
   F                   C
So nimble she's jumped into the bed
   F      G      C              F
To see if it was easy, easy, so easy
   Dm7                 C
So nimble she's jumped into the bed
   F      G      C
To see if it was easy

[Verse]
C
The light dragoon has come upstairs
C
And put his trousers on the table
   F                  C
So nimble he's jumped into the bed
   F       G      C              F
To do what he was able, able, so able
   Dm7                C
So nimble he's jumped into the bed
   F       G      C
To do what he was able

[Verse]
C
They've played upstairs 'til the clock struck one
C
And the trumpets, they were sounding
    F                               C
Her spirits, they were high and her belly, it was low
        F        G      C                 F
An' she run home to her mummy, mummy, her mummy
    Dm7                             C
Her spirits, they were high and her belly, it was low
        F        G      C
An' she run home to her mummy

[Verse]
C
"Oh, where have you been all the livelong night?"
C
Enquired her anxious parents
        F                   C
"I have been alone with the light dragoon
  F       G        C                  F
Because I love him dearly, dearly, so dearly
     Dm7                 C
I've been alone with the light dragoon
  F       G        C
Because I love him dearly"
