Am,4 Blow the Candles Out Am E Am When I was apprenticed in London, I went to see my dear. Am E Am The candles, they were burning, the moon shone bright and clear. C Am C Em Am I knocked upon her window to ease her of her pain, F E Am She rose, she let me in and then she barred the door again. I like your well behavior, and thus I often say, I cannot rest contented while you are far away. The roads they are all muddy, we cannot gang about. So roll me in your arms, love, and blow the candles out. Your father and your mother in yonder room do lie, A huggin' one another, so why not you and I. A huggin' one another with never fear nor doubt. Come roll me in your arms, love, and blow the candles out. And if we prove successful, love, pray name it after me. Keep it neat and kiss it sweet, and daff it on your knee. When my three years are ended, my time it will be out, Then I will come to you my dear, and blow the candles out.
