Вступление
"Adieu, Adieu" (Trad./Arr. Thompson)
As recorded by RT circa 2006.
A traditional English song, AKA "The Flash Lad".
Seems to date from mid 1700s; the "Lord Fielding's gang"
in some variants refers to the early London police
force organized by Henry Fielding of "Tom Jones" fame.

D
Adieu, adieu, hard was my fate,
D G D A
I was brought up in a tender state.

Bad company did me entice,
D D/F# Bm Em A
and I left off work and took bad advice.
[chorus]
D D/F# G D/F# A
Which makes me now to lament and say,
D Bm G A
pity the fate of young felons all,
D G A D
well-a-day, well-a-day.
[verse]
D
I robbed Lord Goldwyn, I do declare,

I shut my shutters and bid them goodnight,
D D/F# Bm Em A
then went home to my heart's delight.
[chorus]
D D/F# G D/F# A
Which makes me now to lament and say,
D Bm G A
pity the fate of young felons all,
D G A D
well-a-day, well-a-day.

Before Judge Aldred I was took,
D G D A
before Judge Aldred I was tried.

My Lady Kemp says "this will not do,
D D/F# Bm Em A
my iron chest you have broken through".
[chorus]

pity the fate of young felons all,

well-a-day, well-a-day.

D
And when I'm dead and gone to my grave,
D D/F# G D A
no costly tombstone will I crave.
D G D A
Six bonny lasses to carry my pall,
D D/F# Bm Em A
give them broadswords, caps and ribbons all.
[chorus]
D D/F# G D/F# A
Which makes me now to lament and say,
D Bm G A
pity the fate of young felons all,
D G A D D5
Oh, well-a-day, well-a-day.
