Here are the chords (which are also present in my ABC transcription, and thus will show up in a generated score):

Key: A

Verse:
In [A]Manchester, that [Bm]city Of [E7]Cotton, Twist, and [A]Twills,
Liv'd the [A]subject of my [Bm]ditty, And the [E]cause of all my [A]ills.
She was [D]handsome, [E7]young and [A]twenty, Her [Bm]eyes were [E7]azure [A]blue.
Ad[D]mirers [E7]she had [A]plenty, And her [B7]name was Dorothy [E]Drew.

Chorus:
She was [A]very fond of [Bm]dancing, But al[E]low me to re[A]mark
That [A]one fine day she [Bm]danc'd away with the [E]Calico Printer's [A]Clerk.
