[Verse]
F F7 Bb G7
When I was a bachelor I lived all alone
C7 F
I worked at the weaver's trade
F F7 Bb G7
And the only, only thing that I did that was wrong
C7 F
Was to woo a fair young maid
[Chorus]
C7 F
I wooed her in the winter time
C7 F
Part of the summer too
F F7 Bb G7
And the only, only thing that I did that was wrong
C7 F
Was to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew
[Verse]
F Bb G7
One night she knelt close by my side
C7 F
When I was fast asleep
F F7 Bb G7
She threw her arms around my neck
C7 F
And then began to weep
[Chorus]
C7 F
She wept, she cried, she tore her hair
C7 F
Ah, me, what could I do?
F F7 Bb G7
So all night long, I held her in my arms
C7 F
Just to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew
[Chorus]
F F7 Bb G7
Again I am a bachelor, I live with my son
C7 C
We work at the weaver's trade
F F7 Bb G7
And every single time that I look into his eyes
C7 F
He reminds me of that fair young maid
[Verse]
C7 F
He reminds me of the wintertime
C7 F
Part of the summer too
F F7 Bb G7
And of the many, many times that I held her in my arms
C7 F Bb Bbm F
Just to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew
