Factory Girl

D

[Verse 1]
As I went out walking one fine 
         C
summer's morning
    D                              
The birds in the branches they did 
C     D
gaily sing
The lads and the lasses together 
     G
were sporting
      D                            
Going down to the factory their 
  G    D
work to begin


[Verse 2]
I spied a fair damsel far fairer 
     C
than any
    D                            
Her cheeks like the red rose that 
      C       D
none could excel
Her skin like the lily that grows in
     G
 yon valley
         D                   G    
She's my own bonnie Annie my 
   D
factory girl

[Verse 3]
I stepped did up to her, just 
            C
thinking to view her
       D                        C 
But at me she cast a proud look of
    D
 disdain
Saying, "Stand off me, young man and
          G
 do not insult me
      D                            
For although I am poor, sure I 
     G  D
think it no shame"


[Verse 4]
"It's not to insult you, fair maid I
       C
 adore thee
         D                         
Ah, pray grant me one favour, it's 
      C     D
where do ya dwell?"
"Kind sir forgive me, it's now I 
     G
must leave you
      D                         
For I hear the dumb sound of the 
 G       D
factory bell"


[Verse 5]
"Now love is a thing that does rule 
      C
every nation
     D                             
Good morning, kind sir, and I hope 
C     D
ya do well
My friends and relations would all 
       G
frown upon it
  D                       G       
Besides I'm a hardworking factory 
D
girl"


[Verse 6]
Oh, it's true I do love her, but now
                C
 she won't have me
    D                           
For her sake I'll wander through 
 C          D
valley and dell
And for her sake I'll wander where 
                G
no one can find me
     D                      G     
I'll die for the sake of my
