Anachie Gordon

G                      Am        
Harking is bonnie and there lives
       Bm
 my love
 C              G                 
My heart lies on him and will not 
      C
remove
G         D             Em      
It will not remove oh for all 
                Bm
that I have done
 C              G            
Oh I never will forget my love 
         C
Anachie
G                  D           
For Anachie Gordon, he's bonnie
Em             Bm
 and he's rough
C           G                 C
He'd entice any woman that ever he 
saw
G     D              Em         
He'd entice any woman and so he 
         Bm
has done me
C            G                C
Oh I never will forget my love 
Anachie


G                Am        
Down came her father and he's 
                     Bm
standing by the door
 C                    G        
Saying Jeannie you're trying the 
                 C
tricks of a whore
 G              D                 
You care nothing for a man who 
  Em               Bm
cares so very much for thee
 C              G                 
You must marry Lord Salton and 
    C
leave Anachie
 G        D               Em     
For Anachie Gordon, he's barely 
        Bm
but a man
 C                   G            
Although he may be pretty but 
              C
where are his lands?
G                    D           
Oh the Sulton's lands are broad 
   Em                       Bm
and his towers they run high
 C                     G          
You must marry Lord Sulton and 
            C
leave Anachie

With Anachie Gordon I'd beg for 
       Bm
my bread
C               G                
And before I'll marry Sulton it's
               C
 gold to my head
G         D             Em 
With gold to my head and gowns 
                     Bm
fringed to the knee
 C              G                 
And I'll die if I don't get me 
    C
love Anachie
G                  D           
And you that are my parents to 
Em             Bm
church you may me bring
C                    G           
But unto Lord Sulton I'll never 
      C
bear a son
G         D              Em     
To a son or a daughter, I'll 
             Bm
never bow my knee
C                      G         
And I'll die if I don't get me 
             C
love  Anachie


G                        Am      
Jeannie was married and from 
                       Bm
church she was brought home
 C                   G        
And when she and her maidens so 
                  C
merry should have been
 G              D              Em
When she and her maidens so merry
                Bm
 should have been
C               G                
She went into her chambers she 
     C
cried all alone
G                  A             
Come to bed now Jeannie me honey 
       Bm

C                     G      
For to style you my mistress it 
                   C
would be so sweet
G               D          Em   
Be it mistress or Jeannie it's 
             Bm
all the same to me
C                      G         
But in your bed Lord Sulton I 
    C
never will lie

G                D               
And down came her father and he's
Em             Bm
 spoken with reknown
C          G                     
Saying you that are her maidens 
       D              G
go loosen off her gowns
G                  D              
But she fell down to the floor so 
 Em             Bm
close down by his knee
C                      G         
Saying father look I'm dying for 
             C
me love Anachie

G                      Am        
The day that Jeannie married was 
               Bm
the day that Jeannie died
C                      G         
And the day that young Anachie 
               C
came home on the tide
G               D          
And down came her maidens all 
      Em                  Bm
wringing of their hands
C                           G    
Saying oh it's been so long 
                       C
you've spent so long on the sands
G           D              Em   
Oh so long on the sands, so long
           Bm
 on the flood
C                      G         
They have married your Jeannie 
             C
and now she lies dead


G               Am               
You that are her maidens go take 
       Bm
me by the hand
C                     G          
And take me to the chamber that 
               C
me love she lies in
G               D                
And he's kissed her cold lips 
           Em               Bm
till his heart has turned to stone
C                      G         
And he's died in the chamber that
             C
 his love she lies in
