verse 1: 
N.C. C      G        F      C 
As   I rode out over London Bridge  
                   G 
On a misty morning early 
  C   G       F           G 
I overheard a fair pretty maid  
  F                      C   F 
A cryin' for the life of Geordie  


verse 2: 
N.C. C         G    F          C 
"Go  bridle to me a milk white steed 
               G 
Bridle to me a pony 
    C         G       F      G 
And I'll ride down to London town 
         F                     C   F 
And I'll plead for the life of Geordie" 


                    Em     Dm7         C 
"For he never stole ox, he never stole ass 
                  G 
He never murdered any 
   Am       G           F            G 
He stole sixteen of the King's royal deer 
       F         Am   Em F 
And he sold them in Bohenny" 


verse 3: 
         C        G        F             C 
But when she rode down and in the King's Hall 
                            G 
There were lords and ladies plenty 
C           G      F             G 
Down on her bended knees she did fall 
    F                          C   F 
And she begged for the life of Geordie 


verse 4: 
         C          G          F      C 
Crying, "Six pretty babes I've had by him 
                       G 
Another one lies in my body 
C          G         F           G 
Freely I'd part with each one of them 
          F                   C   F 
If you'll give me the life of Geordie" 

                    Em     Dm7         C 
"For he never stole ox, he never stole ass 
                  G 
He never murdered any 
   Am       G           F            G 
He stole sixteen of the King's royal deer 
       F         Am   Em F 
And he sold them in Bohenny"
 


VERSE 5: 
        C            G        F         C 
But the judge looked over his left shoulder 
                     G 
He cried, "I'm sorry for thee 
   C           G           F        G 
My pretty fair maid you've come too late 
         F                C  F 
For he's been condemned already" 


VERSE 6: 
        C             G         F        C 
"Oh, me Geordie shall hang in a chain of gold 
                         G 
Such chains as never was any 
  C        G           F     G 
Because he came of the royal blood 
       F                    C F 
And he courted a fine young lady" 

                    Em     Dm7         C 
"For he never stole ox, he never stole ass 
                  G 
He never murdered any 
   Am       G           F            G 
He stole sixteen of the King's royal deer 
       F         Am   Em F 
And he sold them in Bohenny"
 


VERSE 7: 
       C      G          F      C 
"Oh, I wish I had you in yonder grove 
                        G 
Where times I have been many 
     C        G           F      G 
With my broad sword and a pistol too 
    F                     C   F 
I'd fight for the life of Geordie"
