"Nancy Whiskey"
(F) (C) (G) (C)
I am a weaver, a Carlton weaver;
(F) (C) (Am) (C)
I am a brash and a roving blade.
(F) (C) (G) (C)
I will wonder where I wish to.
(Dm) (C) (Am) (G)
I will follow the roving trade
(F) (C) (G) (C)
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey,
(F) (C) (G) (C)
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy-O.
(F) (C) (G) (C)
As I walked out into Glasgow City
(F) (C) (Am) (C)
Nancy kissed me, I chanced to smell
(Dm) (C) (Am) (G)
I walked in and sat down beside her
(F) (C) (G) (C)
Seven long years oh, I loved her well.
(F) (C) (G) (C)
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey,
(F) (C) (G) (C)
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy-O.
(F) (C) (G) (C)
The more I kissed her, the more I loved her;
(F) (C) (Am) (C)
The more I kissed her, the more she smiled
(Dm) (C) (Am) (G)
I for - got my mother's teaching;
(F) (C) (G) (C)
Nancy soon had me beguiled.
(F) (C) (G) (C)
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey,
(F) (C) (G) (C)
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy-O.
(F) (C) (G) (C)
So I'm going back to the Carlton weaving;
(F) (C) (Am) (C)
I'll really make them shuttles fly.
(Dm) (C) (Am) (G)
For I'll make more at Carlton weaving
(F) (C) (G) (C)
Than ever I did in a roving way.
(F) (C) (G) (C)
So come, all you weavers, you Carlton weavers;
(F) (C) (Am) (C)
Weavers, where e'er you be.
(Dm) (C) (Am) (G)
Beware of Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey;
(F) (C) (G) (C)
She'll ruin you like she blinded me.
(F) (C) (G) (C)
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy Whiskey,
(F) (C) (G) (C)
Whiskey, Whiskey, Nancy-O.
