[ Предположительная тональность: G ] G C G As I was a-walking one midsummer's morning G C D I heard the birds whistle and the nightingales play. G C Em And there did I spy a beautiful maiden G C D G As I was a-walking all on the highway. G C G "O where are you going, my fair pretty lady? G C D O where are you going so early this morn?" G C Em She said: "I'm going down to visit my neighbours; G C D G I'm going down to Warwick, the place I was born." G C G It's "May I come with you, my sweet pretty darling? G C D May I go along in your sweet company?" G C Em Then she turned her head and smiling all at me G C D G Saying: "You may come with me, kind sir, if you please." G C G We hadn't been walking but a few miles together G C D Before this young damsel began to show free. G C Em She sat herself down, saying: "Sit down beside me, G C D G And the games we shall play shall be one, two and three." G C G I said: "My dear lady, if you're fond of the gaming G C D There's one game I know I would like you to learn. G C Em The game it is called: The Game of All Fours." G C D G So I took out my pack and began the first turn. G C G She cut the cards first and I fell a-dealing. G C D I dealt her a trump and myself the poor jack. G C Em She led off her ace and stole my jack from me, G C D G Saying: "Jack is the card I like best in your pack." G C G "Since I dealt them last time, it's your turn to shuffle G C D And my turn to show the best card in the pack." G C Em Once more she'd the ace and the deuce for to beat me, G C D G Once again I had lost when I laid down poor jack. G C G I took up my hat and I bid her: "Good morning," G C D I said: "You're the best that I know at this game." G C Em She answered: "Young man, if you'll come back tomorrow G C D G We'll play the game over and over again."
