One Morning In May
(Public Domain, arr. James Taylor )
 
[Verse 1]
    A            G            D          A
One morning, one morning, one morning in May
   A            G                 D            E
I spied a young couple, they were making their way
A         F#m        Bm7           A
One was a maiden, so bright and so fair
        A           D             E          A
and the other was a soldier and a brave volunteer
 
[Verse 2]
      A             G             D              A
"Good Morning, Good Morning, Good Morning," said he
     A             G         D        E
"And where are you going, My pretty lady?"
     A           F#m            Bm7          A
"I'm going out a-walking on the banks of the sea
         A             D                 E           A
Just to see the waters gliding, hear the Nightingale sing."
 
[Verse 3]
             A        G              D         A
Now they had not been standing but a minute or two
     A          G          D         E
When out of his knapsack a fiddle he drew
        A            F#m             Bm7         A
And the tune that he played made the valleys all ring
   A                D                 E           A
"O hark," cried the maiden, "hear the Nightingale sing."
 
[Verse 4]
   A            G            D            A
"O maiden, fair maiden, it's time to give o'er."
   A        G               D             E
"O no, kind soldier, please play one tune more
        A                F#m           Bm7          A
For I'd rather hear your fiddle at the touch of one string
         A             D                 E           A
Than to see the waters gliding, hear the Nightingale sing."
 
[Verse 5]
    A            G             D         A
"O soldier, kind soldier, will you marry me?"
   A          G            D           E
"O no, pretty maiden, that never shall be;
       A           F#m        Bm7            A
I've a wife now in London and children twice three
    A             D          E        A
Two wives and the army's too many for me."
 
[Verse 6]
            A          G                    D           A
"Well, I'll go back to London and I'll stay there for a year
      A              G             D         E
It's often that I'll think of you, my little dear
       A        F#m           Bm7       A
And if ever I return, it will be in the spring
         A             D                 E           A
Just to see the waters gliding, hear the Nightingale sing."
   A              D                 E           A
to see the waters gliding, hear the Nightingale sing."
