Nancy Whiskey Cifras

[Verse 1]
G     Em       C      D
I'm a weaver a Calton weaver,
G     Em         C      D
I'm a rash and a rovin' blade
Em       Bm     C     D
I've got silver in my pocket
G     Em         C      D7
And I follow the roving trade.
 
 
[Chorus]
G       Em      C     D       G       Em     C  D7 G
Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
 
 
[Verse 2]
G         Em    C       D
As I went in by Glasgow City,
G     Em       C          D
Nancy Whisky I chanced to smell,
Em     Bm      C      D
I went in, sat down beside her,
G          Em      C         D7
Seven long years I loved her well.
 
 
[Chorus]
G       Em      C     D       G       Em     C  D7 G
Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
 
 
[Verse 3]
G          Em             C      D
The more I kissed her the more I loved her.
G          Em             C        D
The more I kissed her the more she smiled.
Em       Bm      C        D
Soon I forgot my mother's teachin',
G     Em       C    D7
Nancy soon had me beguiled.
 
 
[Chorus]
G       Em      C     D       G       Em     C  D7 G
Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
 
 
[Verse 4]
G          Em    C      D
Now I rose early in the morning
G           Em         C      D
To slack my thirst, it was my need
Em       Bm         C       D
I tried to rise but was not able,
G     Em     C      D7
Nancy had me by the knees.
 
 
[Chorus]
G       Em      C     D       G       Em     C  D7 G
Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
 
 
[Verse 5]
G             Em          C      D
So, I’m going back to the Calton weaving,
G           Em        C        D
I'll surely make them shuttles fly,
Em         Bm          C      D
For I made more at the Calton weaving
G           Em         C      D7
Than ever I did in the roving way.
 
 
[Chorus]
G       Em      C     D       G       Em     C  D7 G
Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
 
 
[Verse 6]
G               Em          C      D
So, come all ye weavers, ye Calton weavers
G           Em          C        D
Come all ye weavers wherever you be
Em        Bm      C     D
Beware of Whisky, Nancy Whisky
G           Em           C      D7
She’ll ruin you like she ruined me.
 
 
[Chorus]
G       Em      C     D       G       Em     C  D7 G
Whisky, Whisky, Nancy Whisky. Whisky, Whisky Nancy-o!
