The Blacksmith

	  		
Intro: Am 

verse 1: 
                           C     Am 
Well, a blacksmith courted me, I loved him a-dearly  
                  C           Am 
He played upon his pipes both neat and a-trimly  
         C             G        Am 
With his hammer in his hand, he strikes so steady  
                      C         G              Am 
And I love to hear him call all round the smithy  


verse 2: 
                        C              Am 
Well, I love to watch my love with his hammer a-swinging 
                      C           Am 
And I love to hear it fall on the anvil a-ringing 
          C                G          Am 
Well, the note is loud and clear, the sparks are flying 
                       C              G      Am 
And my love is handsome then, there's no denying 


verse 3: 
                        C         Am 
My love's at the bellows now, the fire is roaring 
                     C        Am 
It is getting mighty hot, the flames are soaring 
  C               G           Am 
Nothing can be so gay when my love is blowing 
                           C            G           Am 
And at night it's bright as day when my love is blowing 


verse 4: 
                   C             Am 
Where has my lover gone with his cheeks like roses? 
                      C             Am 
He has gone across yon fields gathering primroses 
         C                   G             Am 
And that sun doth shine too clear, it will burn his beauty 
                     C         G       Am 
I will go and seek my love and do my duty 


VERSE 5: 
                         C             Am 
Strange news has come to town, strange news is carried 
                          C            Am 
Strange news flies up and down that my love is married 
        C                   G       Am 
Well, I wish him joy though he's my love no longer 
                      C          G             Am 
But I love my old love still, my blacksmith yonder 


OUTRO: 
                         C     Am              A 
And a blacksmith courted me, I loved him a-dearly
