Chords:
The Nightingale Capo 1st Fret (There are two words were I could not put an apostrophe in - (they are I m and we ll), so just put it in yourself as I have left the space).A D E AAs I went a walking one morning in MayEI met a young couple who fondly did strayA EOne was a young maid so sweet and so fairA D E AAnd the other was a soldier and a brave grenadierChorusA D E AAnd they kissed so sweet and comforting as the clung to each otherEThey went arm and arm along the road like sister and brotherA EThey went arm in arm along the road til they came to a streamA D E AAnd they both sat down together love to hear the nightingale singA D E AWell out of his knapsack he took a fine fiddleEAnd he played her such a merry tune that you ever did hearA EAnd he played her such a merry tune that the valley did ringA D E AAnd they both sat down together love to hear the nightingale singRepeat ChorusA D E AWell I m off to India for seven long yearsEDrinking wines and strong whiskeys instead of cool beersA EAnd if ever I return again it will be in the springA D E AAnd we ll both sit down together love to hear the nightingale singA D E AOh soldier, Oh soldier, will you marry meEOh no said the soldier that never can beA EFor I have a wife at home in my own countryA D E AAnd she is the sweetest thing that you ever did seeRepeat Chorus
