Verse 1:
C#m B C#m E B C#m
It's of a farmer's daughter, so beautiful I'm told,
E B C#m G#m
Her parents died and left her with five hundred pounds in gold,
C#m B C#m E B
She lived with her uncle, the source of all her woe,
E E/D# B C#m
As you will hear, this maiden did prove his overthrow.
C#m B E B C#m
[the last bar of the main riff]
Her uncle had a plough-boy, Young Mary loved full well,
And in her uncle's garden their tales of love did tell,
There was a wealthy squire who oft came her to see,
But still she loved her plough-boy on the banks of sweet Dundee
Refrain:
F#m
Her uncle rose one morning and then went straightway,
E
and knocked at her bedroom door and unto her thus did say,
F#m
Come rise up fair maiden, a lady you shall be,
E
For the squire is waiting for you on the banks of sweet Dundee
D C#m
A fig for all your squires, your lords and dukes likewise.
E F#m
My Williams hand appears to me like diamonds in my eyes

and then the song ends with more bends in the background and fades into the second part.
i'll tab out the second part if enough people want it, but i'm pretty lazy and
this took me long enough to tab out.
anyways, i hope you enjoy this tab
