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
