Altan - Blackwaterside

One evening ^Dfair to ^Gtake the ^Dair Down ^Cby^G Blackwater^Dside 'Twas a-^Ggazing ^Dall a^Ground ^Dme That the ^CIr^Gish lad I ^Dspied

All through the part of ^Gdark the ^Dnight We did ^Clie^G in sport and ^Dplay When this ^Gyoung man a^Drose and ^Ggathered his ^Dclothes Saying, "^CFare^G thee well to^Dday"

That's not the promise that you ^Ggave to ^Dme When ^Cyou^G lay upon my ^Dbreast You could ^Gmake me be^Dlieve with your ^Glying ^Dwords That the ^Csun^G rose in the ^Dwest

Go home, go home to your ^Gfather's ^Dgarden Go ^Chome^G and weep your ^Dfill And ^Gthink on your ^Down mis^Gfor^Dtune You brought ^Con^G with your wanton ^Dwill

For there's not a girl in this ^Gwhole wide ^Dworld As ^Cea^Gsily led as ^DI And when ^Gfishes can ^Dfly and the ^Gseas run ^Ddry It is ^Cthen^G that you'll marry ^DI ^{C D} It is ^Cthen^G that you'll marry ^DI
