Many Young Men of Twenty (1993 Digital Remaster)
guitar chords lyrics
Many young man of twenty said goodbye
All that long day
From break of dawn until the sun was high
Many young man of twenty said goodbye
My boy Jimmy went that day
On the big ship sailed away
Sailed away and left me here to die
Many young man of twenty said goodbye
I met my love upon the mountain Rim
The day he left
I new I bore a living child of him
I new I bore a living child of him
And the child was born to me
Jimmy's gone across the sea
Jimmy's gone and here alone am I
And the child was born to me
Jimmy's gone across the sea
Jimmy's gone and here alone am I
Many young man of twenty said goodbye
My Jimmy said he'd sailed across the sea
He swore his oaths
He'd sail back home one day and marry me
He'd sail back home one day and marry me
But my Jimmy let me down
Now they mock me in the town
Oh my Jimmy please come back to me
Oh my Jimmy please come back to me
Many young man of twenty said goodbye
All that long day
From break of dawn until the sun was high
Many young man of twenty said goodbye
They left the mountains and the glens
The lasses and the fine young men
I saw the tears of every girl and boy
Many young man of twenty said goodbye
