A5
I met this boy he's a country boy
A5
he had blue eyes blonde hair reminded me of
A5
a man I had not too long ago
A5
a man I used to know
A5
His words were short but they left a mark
A5
he said whatcha doing out here young girl
A5
won't you come with me I will marry you
A5
won't you come with me tonight
[Chorus]
F#m E A
In a forest cross the river
F#m E A
over mountains and the sea
F#m E A D
through the pastures and the fields of green
A E A
I'll take you home with me
[Verse]
A E
His name was Jonathon Appleton
D A
he wore a leather vest and a hat
A A
didn't talk much but I knew I had
F#m E A
to join him on his journey
A E
His words were short but they lingered long
D A
he said whatcha doing out here sweet one
F#m A
won't you come with me I will marry you
A E A
won't you come with me tonight
[Chorus]
F#m E A
In a forest cross the river
F#m E A
over mountains and the sea
F#m E A D
through the pastures and the fields of green
A E A
I'll take you home with me
