Grateful Dead – Peggy-O (Ukulele)

   C         F              C
As we marched out to Fennerio

   C         Am      Em
As we marched out to Fennerio

    F               C
Our Captain fell in love

       C          Am
With a lady like a dove

     C               F                C
And he called her by name, Pretty Peggy-O

    C           F                C
Would you marry me, pretty Peggy-O?

    C           Am               Em
Would you marry me, pretty Peggy-O?

    F              C
If you would marry me,

        C               Am
I would set your cities free

 C            F                C
Free all the ladies in the are-o

    C           F                C
I would marry you, sweet William-O

    C           Am               Em
I would marry you, sweet William-O

    F           C
I would marry you

       C                 Am
But your Guineas are too few

       C       F                  C
And I fear my mama would be angry-o

    C           F                        C
What would your mama think, pretty Peggy-O

    C           Am                       Em
What would your mama think, pretty Peggy-O

     F               C
What would your mama think,

       C         Am
If she heard my Guineas clink?

        C              F                   C
Saw me marching at the head of my soilders-o.

    C           F                  C
For if ever I return, pretty Peggy-O

    C       Am                 Em
If ever I return, pretty Peggy-O

    F       C
If ever I return

          C            Am
All your cities I will burn

     C          F                 C
Destroy all the ladies in the are-o

       C                F                    C
Come a-steppin down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O

       C                Am                   Em
Come a-steppin down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O

        F               C
Come a-steppin down the stairs

         C               Am
Combin' back your yellow hair

      C         F                    C
Bid a last fair well to your William-O

      C             F                  C
Sweet William he is dead, pretty Peggy-O

      C             Am                 Em
Sweet William he is dead, pretty Peggy-O

      F             C
Sweet William he is dead,

       C          Am
And he died for a maid

         C         F                C
And he's buried in Louisana country-O

   C          F            C
As we marched out to Fenerio

   C          Am           Em
As we marched out to Fenerio

    F               C
Our Captain fell in love

       C           Am
With a lady like a dove

     C               F                  C
And he called her by name, Pretty Peggy-O
