Peggy Gordon
Intro: 1 2 3 C G D G
O Peggy Gordon you are my darling,
Come sit you down upon my knee,
Come tell to me the very reason,
Why I am slighted so by thee.

I'm so in love that I can't deny it,
My heart lies smothered in my breast,
It's not for me to let the whole world know it,
A troubled mind can know no rest.

I put my head to a cask of brandy,
It was my fancy I do declare,
For when I'm drinking I'm always thinking,
And wishing Peggy Gordon was here.
Instrumental Verse
G D C G D C G D C G D G

I wish I was away in Ingo,
Far across the briney sea,
Sailing o'er the deepest ocean,
Where love nor care never bothered me.

I wish I was in some lonesome valley,
Where woman kind can not be found,
Where the pretty small birds do change their voices,
And every moment a different sound.
Repeat 1st Verse
O Peggy Gordon you are my darling,
Come sit you down upon my knee,
Come tell to me the very reason,
Why I am slighted so by thee.
Repeat Last Line
Why I am slighted so by thee.
