                                        Monday morning    (intro)
 
    Dm - E - Am
 
     Dm                                 E              Am
1. Early one mornin?? one mornin?? in spring
         Dm                    G              C                  E
    to hear the birds whistle, the nightingales sing.
       Am             G                  Am          Em
    I met a fair maiden who sweetly did sing,
          Am              Dm                  E               Am
    I??m going to be married next Monday morning.
 
      Dm                            E               Am
2. ??How old are you, my fair young maid,
     Dm              G               C              E
    here in this valley, this valley so green ?
     Am               G          Am             Em
    How old are you, my fair young maid ??
     Am                   Dm                 E              Am
    ??I??m goin?? to be sixteen next Monday morning.?
 
              Dm                                  E                       Am
3. ??Well, sixteen years old, that??s too young for to marry,
         Dm             G              C                    E
    so take my advice, five years longer to tarry.
           Am                       G                Am           Em
    For marriage brings troubles and sorrows begin,
         Am              Dm                 E              Am
    so put off your wedding for Monday morning.?
 
             Dm                                 E                Am
4. ??You talk like a mad man, a man with no skill,
    Dm                             G           C                     E
    two years I??ve been waiting against my own will.
            Am            G                Am                 Em
    And now I??m determined to have my own way,
           Am                    Dm                  E              Am
    and I??m going to be married next Monday morning.?
 


              Dm                                   E                   Am
5. ??And next Monday mornin?? the bells they will ring,
   Dm                       G             C           E
   my true love will buy me a gay gold ring.
    Am            G            Am           Em
    Also he??ll buy me a new pretty gown
          Am            Dm                   E              Am
    to wear at my wedding next Monday morning.?
 
      Dm                                  E               Am
6. ??Next Monday night when I go to my bed,
         Dm       G                   C                  E
    and I turn round to the man that I??ve wed,
       Am            G             Am                  Em
    around his middle my two arms I will fling,
             Am             Dm               E              Am
    and I wish to my soul it was Monday morning.?
