Lute Playin’ Man
By © Jelila 2006. All Rights Reserved.
Am C G Am
And I had snuff and I had britches both
Am C G Am
Tinder in my pocket and I did plight my troth
Am C G Am F C F C
to a lady fair With fleeting smile and golden wavy hair
Am C G Am
Who did dance enough to make all come and stare
Am C F C
Diamonds and stardust in her hair.
Am C G Am
Waistcoats brocade had I and did enjoy
Am C G Am
Soft grey britches of corduroy
Am C G Am
And of an afternoon did plight my troy
F C F C
Playing my lute songs and calling for the boy to ale me
Am C F C
Calling for sup and song to sustain me
Chorus
F C Em Am F C Em Am
And I was, as I am. And I was a lute playin’ man. X 2
Am C G Am
A small terrier had I, a spaniel too
F C F Am
I smoked a pipe was something that I liked to do
Am C F Am
And walking in the forest dew
Am C F C
With Mary talking and the Spring flowers new
Chorus
Am C G Am
The dog did sleep quiet beneath the table
Am C G Am
I loved to walk in green field and in stable
F C F C
Pet the horses and ride out under the gable
Chorus
Am C G Am
But Mary did me most pleasure bring
Am C G Am
To watch her breast rise and fall as she did watch me sing
F C F C
And see her gentle smile and eyes so marrying x 2
Chorus
