Joan Baez – Geordie chords

   Am	     G		F    CAs I walked out over London bridge
Am         C        GOne misty morning early,
Am      C      G           EmI overheard a fair pretty maid
F        C     E        AmWas lamenting for her Geordie.
   
        Am               G           F      CAh, my Geordie will be hanged in a golden chain,
Am             C       G'Tis not the chain of many
Am       C       G            EmHe was born of king's royal breed
F     C          E       AmAnd lost to a virtuous lady.
     Am   G      F           CGo bridle me my milk white steed,
Am        C      GGo bridle me my pony,
Am       C       G      EmI will ride to London court
F    C            E           AmTo plead for the life of my Geordie.
        
         Am            G        F        CAh, my Geordie never stole nor cow nor calf,
Am         C     GHe never hurted any,
Am       C            G             Em      Stole sixteen of the king's royal deer,
F       C        E     AmAnd he sold them in Bohenny.

Am           G     F      CTwo pretty babies have I born,
     Am         C     GThe third lies in my body,
Am          C               G    EmI'd freely part with them every one
    F      C        E        AmIf you'd spare the life of Geordie.

     Am           G         F     CThe judge looked over his left shoulder,
    Am         C        GHe said fair maid I'm sorry
    Am         C        G      EmHe said fair maid you must be gone
F        C      E      AmFor I cannot pardon Geordie.

         Am              G            F     CAh, my Geordie will be hanged in a golden chain,
  Am           C        G'Tis not the chain of many,
Am      C              G           EmStole sixteen of the king's royal deer
F       C         E    AmAnd he sold them in Bohenny.
