       he levelled his cannon right over the land
           D               A       G          D

    2. If I was a small bird and had wings to fly
       I'd fly 'cross the salt sea to where my love does lie
       and with my fond wings I'd beat over his grave
       and kiss the pale lips that lie cold in the clay.
    R:

    3. Now the dove she laments for her mate as she flies
       oh where tell me where is my darling she cries
       and where in this wide world is there one to compare
       with my bonnie light horseman who was slain in the wars.
