    	    	Вступление

[Intro}
Dm   C   Bb    Am   (2x)

[Verse 1]
   Dm         C           Bb         Am
As I went out walking one morning in June
  Bb           Am7           Bb            C
I spied a fair damsel in the sweet summer bloom
    Dm               Am           Bb           Am
Her cheeks they were rosy and her hair it fell down
        Gm            Am              Bb       Dm
And she came from the Blackwater near sweet Portadown

[Verse 2]
  Dm         C              Bb          Am
I stood in amazement as the breezes did blow
        G            Am            Bb           C
And the blood like a river through my veins did flow
       Dm              Am             Bb       Am
Well I thought her the fairest in all Ireland around
     Gm        Am           Bb         Dm
That morning I met her near sweet Portadown

[Verse 3]
  Dm            C         Bb              Am
I says, "my wee lassie, I don’t know your name?"
    Dm          C              Bb            C
And quickly she answered, "I’m afflicted the same"
       G               Am          Bb           Am
Well I said, "mine's O’Connor, but first Pat putdown (??)"
        G             Am              Bb          Dm
And she says, "mine's O’Driscoll from beside Portadown"

[Verse 4]
  Dm             Am        Bb           Am
I excused myself kindly, I said "if you please
        Dm          Am            Bb         C
We will both take a ramble by the Blackwater breeze"
         Dm             C               Bb       Am
Well she said, "you are kind sir, but I can’t go today
           Gm              Am              Bb       Dm
For I’m in search of young lambs that have strayed away"

[Verse 5]
  Dm                  Am      Bb             Am
I said, "I'll go with you, in search of your flock"
       Dm         Am            Bb          C
As the sun it did dazzle on her sweet amber locks
        Gm                 Am         Bb            Am
Well we searched the whole day as the sun was going down
       G         Am                Bb         Dm
And at length we located them near sweet Portadown

[Verse 6]
      Dm           Am                Bb          Am
As we journeyed on homewards, we sat down for to rest
      Gm               Am              Bb          C
As we watched the rock thrushes on the Blackwaters crest
       Gm         Am                   Bb        Am
Well I told her I loved her, and would she be my bride?
       G               Am           Bb         Dm
And we both would live happy by the Black-waterside

[Verse 7]
    Dm             Am                Bb        Am
She says, "you are kind sir, but you must me excuse
      Dm        Am           G         C
For I am a poor girl and you must be refused
       Dm          Am          Bb          Am
I work hard for my living, the whole year around
    Gm              Am          Bb         Dm
And besides I would never leave sweet Portadown"

[Verse 8]
        Dm    Am                   Bb           Am
I would never expect you leave the land of your birth
      Gm           Am           G            C
For I think it the grandest and fairest on earth
    Dm        Am             Bb         Am
But if you’ll consent for to be my fond bride
   Gm              Am           Bb         Dm
We both would live happy by the Black-waterside

[Verse 9]
  Dm           Am            Bb          Am
We went to her parents, they considered awhile
    Gm            Am        Bb              C
Her mother looked on me and said she with a smile
    G        Am          Bb            Am
"If Flora consents, sure we’ll consent too"
    Gm         Am          Bb      Dm
And married we were on the 18th of June

[Verse 10]
        Dm           Am       Bb        Am
So come all ye young maidens, assemble tonight
    Gm         Am               Bb              C
And marry your first love, even though at first sight
      Gm        Am        Bb        Am
Don’t marry for riches or fame or renown
    Gm           Am       Bb         Dm
For we're living happy in sweet Portadown
