Hi you guys,
I love my toys...I have saved thousands of dollars on musical gear and books over the last few years by buying the stuff at Music123
I've bought guitars and music books and strings and microphones and lots of other stuff that I needed. I'm a cheap bugger so I like to save my money. But I need to have the things to play and record music.
   I bought a bass guitar last year for a wicked good price.  You get free shipping on a lot of things. Check it out. Click this link to get there. Music123
Oh! And I never got screwed by them.
They are great to do business with. You can just do it right from here easy to buy something to make yourself happy.   Music123
Yours truly, The webmaster/musician guy - Roger Chartier

The Butcher Boy

A              E                           A
In Moore Street where I did dwell,
                D                       A
A butcher boy I loved him well,
                  F#m                  Bm
He courted me, for many a day,
                      E                     A
He stole from me, my heart away.
 
 CHORUS:
              E                     A
I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,
             D                  A
I wish I was a maid again,
              F#m                Bm
A maid again I ne'er can be,
                E                     A
till apples grow on an ivy tree.
 
A                E                         A   
There is an inn in that same town
                      D                        A
And there my love he sits him down:
                   F#m                      Bm
He takes a strange girl on his knee
                     E                                A
And tells her what he wouldn't tell me.

Chorus
 A                E                  A
The reason is I'll tell you why,
                        D                            A
Because she's got more gold than I,
                    F#m                 Bm
But gold will melt and silver fly
                       E                             A
And in time of need be as poor as I.

Chorus
 A             E                           A
I'll go upstairs and make my bed,
                               D                      A
There's nothing to do,' my mother said.
                  F#m                    Bm
My mother she has followed me,
                               E                                A
Saying what is the matter, me daughter dear.
 
A                 E                     A 
'Oh mother dear, you little know
                          D                        A
What pains and sorrows or what woe.
               F#m                   Bm
Go get a chair and sit me down
                      E                       A
With pen and ink I'll write all down.'
 
A                    E                        A
Her father he came home that night,
                           D              A 
Enquiring for his heart's delight,
                   F#m                       Bm
He went upstairs, the door he broke,
                      E                    A
He found her hanging on a rope.

 A             E                           A
He took a knife and cut her down
                                       D           A
And in her bosom these Iines he found:
                  F#m                  Bm
'Oh what a foolish girl was I
                   E                            A      
To hang myself for a butcher's boy.
 
A                E                               A
'Go dig my grave both wide and deep,
                      E                                 A
Put a marble stone at my head and feet,
                  F#m                         Bm
And on my grave place a turtle dove,
                     E                              A
To show the world that I died for love.
