OH, YOU LITTLE DARLING
Trad. American folk
Key: G
Time: 2/4

-1   -1  2  -2*  3  -4 -3 -3
Oh! what a thing it is to be
2  3    -2*  -2* 2   -1
A girl with lots of beaus,
-1  -1   2 -2*   3   -4   -3  -3
The num-ber of young men I’ve got
 2     3    -2*  2 -2*   3
Well, good-ness, on-ly knows;
 3   -2*  -2*  3   -2* -2* 2    2
When e'er I'm walk-ing in the street,
-1   1*  2  3   -4   -3  3   -2*
I'm near-ly al-ways sure to meet
-2* -2* -3   3   -2*  2   2   -4
A young man who will call me sweet.
-4   -4  -3  3   2  -1 4
And then so gent-ly say;

Chorus.
3   -2*  2  -2*  2   -1   3  3    3
Oh! you lit-tle dar-ling, I love you,
3   -2*  2  -2*  2   -1   -3  -3   -3
Oh! you lit-tle dar-ling, are you true?
-4  4   -4  -3  3   2
If you real-ly love me 
-3  3   -2*  2  -1
as you ought to do,
 2    3  -2*  2   -1
Noth-ing in this world 
  3   -4   4   -4  -3  3
shall cut our love in two.
