Version 1
            [Verse 1]
Dm                                    
Once on a time there lived a man, his name was Peter Gray;
Dm                   N.C.                   A               Dm
He lived way down in that there town called Penn-syl-va-ni- a.

[Chorus]
Dm                        Gm                  Dm
Blow ye winds of morning, blow ye winds heigh- o,
Dm                        A7          Dm
Blow ye winds of morning, blow, blow, blow.

[Verse 2]
Dm                                
Now Peter fell in love all with a nice young girl,
Dm                      N.C.             A            Dm
The first three letters of her name were Lucy, Annie, Pearl.

[Chorus]
Dm                        Gm                  Dm
Blow ye winds of morning, blow ye winds heigh- o,
Dm                        A7          Dm
Blow ye winds of morning, blow, blow, blow.

[Verse 3]
Dm                                
Just as they were about to wed her father did say no;
Dm                  N.C.           A7           Dm
And con-ci-quent-ly she was sent beyond the Oh-i-o.

[Chorus]
Dm                        Gm                  Dm
Blow ye winds of morning, blow ye winds heigh- o,
Dm                        A7          Dm
Blow ye winds of morning, blow, blow, blow.

[Verse 4]
Dm                                
When Peter heard of this sad news, he knew not what to say,
Dm                  N.C.          A7          Dm
He'd half a mind to jump into the Susquehan-i-a.

[Chorus]
Dm                        Gm                  Dm
Blow ye winds of morning, blow ye winds heigh- o,
Dm                        A7          Dm
Blow ye winds of morning, blow, blow, blow.

[Verse 5]
Dm                                
Now Peter went away out west to seek his fort-i-an, 
Dm                    N.C.            A7            Dm
But he was caught and scal-pi-ed by a blood-i In-di-in.

[Chorus]
Dm                        Gm                  Dm
Blow ye winds of morning, blow ye winds heigh- o,
Dm                        A7          Dm
Blow ye winds of morning, blow, blow, blow.


[Verse 6]
Dm                                
When Lucy heard of this sad news, she knew not what to say, 
N.C.                               A7               Dm
She wept and wept and wep-i-ed her poor sweet life away.

[Chorus]
Dm                        Gm                  Dm
Blow ye winds of morning, blow ye winds heigh- o,
Dm                        A7          Dm
Blow ye winds of morning, blow, blow, blow.
