Fairport Convention - John Gaudie

      
 
      G            C           G                     F   
 John Gaudie was a fine young man in shetland it was told
 G                   C       G                            D 
 Many's the crowd in Lerwick Town his fiddle and he did hold
         G                        C         G   
 They've danced it up and they've danced it down
                            F  
 as he fiddled his tunes around
    G                 C        G                          D   
 Of all the played in Shetland Isles no better could be found.
 
 Chorus...
      C              G          
 When John broke the prison door
                               D          
 The jailer had never seen his like before
 C                     G                                D      
 He ran back to the Levenwick shore and wrote himself a tune...
