[Verse]
Am Em Am D C G Am
One night as I lay on my bed, I dreamed about a pretty maid
Em Am Em D G
Love so oppressed, I could take no rest; love did torment me so
Am Em G Am G Am
So away to my true love I did go
[Verse]
Am Em Am D C G Am
And when I came to my love's window, I boldly called her by her name
Em Am Em D G
For your sweet sake I'm come here this late, through this bitter frost and snow
Am Em G Am G Am
So open your window, my love, do
[Verse]
Am Em Am D C G Am
My mam and dad they are both awake, and they’re sure for to hear us speak
Em Am Em D G
There'll be no excuse then, but sore abuse, many a bitter word and blow
Am Em G Am G Am
So begone from my window, my love, do
[Verse]
Am Em Am D C G Am
Your mam and dad they are both asleep, and they’re sure not to hear us speak
Em Am Em D G
They're sleeping sound on their bed of down, and they draw their breath so low
Am Em G Am G Am
So open your window, my love, do
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
Am Em Am D C G Am
My lover rose and she opened the door, and just like an angel she stood on the floor
Em Am Em D G
Her eyes shone bright like the stars at night, no diamonds could shine so
Am Em G Am G Am
So in with my true love I did go
