I Held A Lady Song Lyrics And Chords (Tommy Makem) For Tommy Makem’s original version use a capo on the 3rd fret to change key to G# major.

G)I held a lady, (D)o laddy daddy
(G)I held a lovely (D)brown haired girl
(G)I held a lady (D)o laddy daddy
I held a lovely brown haired (G)girl
I know that she was (D)warm
For I (G)held her and (D)touched her
I (G)held her so (D)long, it was lovely
Holding her against my (G)body - G-D-G-D

(G)I hear her laughing, (D)I see her smiling
(G)I feel her arm a(D)round me
From (G)morning, the sun is (D)shining till evening
Even when night is falling (G)down
All down the calling (D)way
Calling (G)you young (D)lady
(G)Are you brown haired, (D)o laddy daddy
Diddley-I-da-the-daddle-(G)lady - G-D-G-D

(G)Now I remember, (D)how I remember
(G)Old days when I was (D)young days
When (G)I held a lady, (D)o laddy daddy
I held a lovely brown haired (G)girl
Old days are dead and (D)gone days
A(G)live in the (D)morning
A(G)live in the (D)sun, laddy daddy
Diddley-I-da-the-daddle-(G)lady - G-D-G-D

(G)Red lips that love at (D)my lips, a heart and
(G)Thigh, hips and legs and (D)I slips
A(G)way from the dawning (D)day Laddy yawning,
I looks along an old (G)road
An old sally noggin (D)bog road
Where (G)I held a (D)lady
Where (G)I held a (D)lovely, dil daddle
Diddley-I-da-the-daddle-(G)lady - G-D-G-D

(G)I held a lady, (D)o laddy daddy -G-G-D-D
(G)I held a lady, (D)o laddy daddy -G-G-D-D
Repeat several times slowly fading...
