Capo 2
[] [] [] []
I once knew a maiden, Her story is sad
[] [] [] []
She loved a young sailor, a brave sailor lad
[] [] [] []
He courted her daily, By night and by day
[] [] [] []
Till at last the young sailor, He sailed far away
(chorus)
[] [] [] []
If I were a blackbird, I d whistle and sing
[] [] [] []
A long loving story, to him i would bring
[] [] [] []
Id tell him my sorrows, my grief and my woes
[] [] [] []
And when I go and find him, Id crown him with gold
