Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Bridgette was[C#] a collie with
an [F#]independent [C#]air
[D]And [Ab]Bridgette had a sweetheart
who was gay and debon[C#]air
[A]He would [D]woo her, court her,
jilt her [C#]nearly [F#]every other day
[D]Til[C#]l fi [Ab]nally Miss Bridg[A]ette
was [Eb]heard at last to [A]say
Let [D]him go, let him tarry,
let him sink or let him swim
[A]He doesn't care for me
and I [D]don't care for him
He can go and find another
that I [G]hope he will en[C#]joy
[A]Cause I'm gonna marry a far nicer boy
[D]Let him[G] go, let him[D] go
Let [A]him go, let him tarry, let him stay
He can [D]go and find another
that I [G]hope he [D]will enjoy
Cause [A]I'm [Em]gonna marry
[A]a far nicer boy
She's gonna marry a [Ab]far [A]nicer [D]boy[A][D]
He can go to his [A]old [D]mother
and [G]set her [D]mind at [C#]ease
For [A]she's an old, woman
and very hard to please
[D]She can say that I am flighty
as [G]she has [A]always [D]done
[A]But [Ab]I don't wa[A]nt to marry
her [Bbdim]great big ugl[Eb]y son
[A]Let him go,[C#] let him tarry,
let him [F#]sink or let him [C#]swim
[D]He [A]doesn't car[Eb]e for me
and [A]I don't care for him
[D]He can[C#] go [D]and find another
that I [F#]hope he [D]will enjoy
Cause [A]I'm gonna marry [Em]a fa[A]r nicer boy
[D]The yea[C#]rs roll on and left poor
Bridget [F#]high [D]upon the shelf
And [A]often in the evening
when she's sitting by herself
[D]She[C#] remembers that young fellow
[F#]so deaf an[D]d air and gay
And [A]wishes oh so often
he'd never [Eb]heard her [A]say
[D]Let [G]him go, let him go, let [D]him go, let him go
Let [A]him go, let [Eb]him tarry, [A]let him stay
[D]He did, he found another,
[G]now nothing's [A]left for me
[D]Bring [Em]back my Barney,
[A]oh bring him back to me,[D]
bring him back[F#],
bring him back,
[G]bring [D]him back, bring him back
Bring [Bm]back my [Em]Barney to [A]me,
he [D]wasn't found another,
none [G]of it's left for [A]me
[D]Bring [A]back my Bonnie!
Bring back my Bonnie!
Bring back my Bonnie!
BRING [Ab]BACK MY [A]BONNIE!
Bring back my Bonnie to [D]me!
[C#]
