The Bonny Lighter Boy (chrom)

English folk song

Key: Bm

-5 6 -6*-6*-6* 6 -6* -8 -8 -7

It’s of a brisk young sail-or lad

-8 -6* -5 6 -5 -4

And he a pren-tice bound

-7 -8 -9 8* -8 -7 -5

And she a mer-chant’s daugh-ter

6 -6* -6* -5 5* -4 6

With fif-ty thou-sand pound

-7 -8 8* -9 8* -8 -7-5

They loved each oth-er dear-ly

6 -6* -6* -5 -4 6

In sor-row and in joy

-5 6 -6* -6* -6* -6*

Let him go where he will

-8 -8 -8 -8

He’s my love still

-7 7 -6* -5 6 -5 5* -4

He’s my bon-ny light-er boy
