Judy Collins - So Early, Early In The Spring
[Intro]
A
[Verse 1]
So early, early in the spring 
I shipped on Gboard to serve my Aking 
I left my dearest dear behind 
AShe oft' times swore her heart was mine
[Verse 2]
My love she takes me by the hand 
“If ever I Gmarry, you'll be the Aman" 
A thousand vows so long and sweet 
ASaying, "We'll be married when next we meet" 
[Verse 3]
And all the time I sailed the seas 
I could not Gfind one moment's Aease 
In thinking of my dearest dear 
AAnd never a word from her could I hear 
[Instrumental]
A     G  A
[Verse 4]
At last we sailed into Glasgow town 
I strode the Gstreets both up and Adown 
Inquiring for my dearest dear 
AAnd never a word from her could I hear 
[Verse 5]
I went straightway to her father's hall 
And loudly Gfor my love did Acall 
“My daughter's married, she's a rich man's wife 
AShe’s wed to another, much better for life" 
[Verse 6]
If the girl is married that I adore 
I'm sure I'll Gstay on land no Amore 
I'll sail the sea till the day I die 
AI'll break the waves rolling mountains high

In thinking of my dearest dear
