  As we marched down to Fennario
      Am      G       C           G           F      C
  Our captain fell in love with a lady like a dove
          C            Am     Em         F     C
  And the name she was called was pretty Peggy-O

 Won't you come and go with me, pretty Peggy-O?

 Won't you come and go with me, pretty Peggy-O?
     Am      G       C           G           F      C
 In coaches you shall ride with your true love by your side
    C      Am     Em         F     C
 Just as grand as any lady in the are-o

  C             Am   Em    F   C
 What would your mother think, pretty Peggy-O?
  C             Am   Em    F   C
 What would your mother think, pretty Peggy-O?
     Am      G       C           G           F      C
 What would your mother think for to hear the guineas clink
     C      Am     Em         F     C
 And the soldiers all marching before you?

  C             Am   Em    F   C
 You're the man that I adore, sweet William-O
  C             Am   Em    F   C
 You're the man that I adore, sweet William-O
     Am      G       C           G           F      C
 You're the man that I adore, but your fortune is too low
     C      Am     Em         F     C
 I'm afraid that my mother would be angry-o

  C             Am   Em    F   C
 Come tripping down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O 
  C             Am   Em    F   C
 Come tripping down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O
     Am      G       C           G           F      C
 Come tripping down the stairs and tie up your yellow hair
     C      Am     Em         F     C
 Bid a last farewell to sweet William-O

  C             Am   Em    F   C
 If ever I return, pretty Peggy-O
  C             Am   Em    F   C
 If ever I return, pretty Peggy-O
     Am      G       C    G       F      C
 If ever I return then the city I shall burn
     C      Am     Em         F     C
 And destroy all the ladies in the are-o

  C             Am   Em    F   C
 Our captain he is dead, pretty Peggy-O
  C             Am   Em    F   C
 Our captain he is dead, pretty Peggy-O
 Am      G       C        G           F      C
 Our captain he is dead, and he died for a maid
     C      Am     Em         F     C
 And he's buried in Louisiana county-o.
