[Verse 1]
Am               G
I walked out one May morning

       Am               Em
For to take a pleasant walk,

  Am       G         D         C     
I sat down beside an old stone wall

    Em             Am
To hear two lovers talk.

   Am                   G
To hear what they might say, my dear,

        Am                  Em
For to hear what they might say

        Am       G            D          C  
So that I might know a little more about love

  Em          Am
Before I go away.
[Chorus]
Am            G
P stands for Paddy, I suppose

Am            Em
J for my love John,

        Am   G       D         C
And the W stands for false William

    Em                    Am
And Johnny is the fairest man

Am                    G
Johnny is the fairest man, my dear,

Am                    Em
Johnny is the fairest man.

    Am      G         D        C
And I don’t care what anybody says,

    Em                    Am
But Johnny is the fairest man.
[Verse 2]
Am              G
“Come and sit beside meself my love,

       Am                    Em
“No, I don't really have the time,

    Am   G     D             C
For you love another littel lad,

      Em                   Am
And your heart’s no longer mine.

     Am                G
Your heart’s no longer mine, my dear,

        Am                Em
No your heart’s no longer mine.

    Am      G         D        C
And I don't care what anybody says

         Em                Am
For your heart’s no longer mine.”

Johnny is the fairest man, my dear,

Am                    Em
Johnny is the fairest man.

[Verse 3]
Am             G
I will climb a high high tree

         Am                  Em
And I’ll rob the wild bird’s nest.

Am     G          D       C
Back I bring what I find there

       Em              Am
To the girl I love the best.

Am                      G
To the girl  I love ike best, my dear,

       Am              Em          
To the girl I love the best.

     Am        G         D       C
Yes, back I'll bring whatI find there

To the girl I love the best.
