[Verse]
G#m A E B
In the third month of the year, to Camelot did come
G#m A E B
G# gentle and a courteous child that knew much wisdom
G#m F# E B C#m E
G# tunic and a mantle this young child had on
G#m F# E B C#m F#
With broaches and ringes, full richly bedone
[Verse]
B G#m A E B
He had a suit of eastern silk about his middle drawn
G#m A E B
And if he lacked in courtesy, he thought of it much shame
G#m F# E B C#m E
"God speed thee, King Arthur, sitting at thy meat
G#m F# E B C#m F#
And the goodly Queen Guinevere, I cannot her forget
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
B G#m A E B
I have with me a mantle, no lady can resist
G#m A E B
But it shall ne'er become that wife that hath once done amiss
G#m F# E B C#m E
For if she be unfaithful, in tatters it shall fall
G#m F# E B C#m F#
And if she be but honest, she'll brighten any hall"
[Verse]
B G#m A E B
And first there came Queen Guinevere, for she should lead the way
G#m A E B
And she was surely in great doubt, although she would not say
G#m F# E B C#m E
And then she took the mantle, as if she'd been a maid
G#m F# E B C#m F#
And suddenly from top to toe, it loosely fell in shreds
B G#m A E B
And then it coloured brightest red, and then it coloured green
B G#m A E B
And then it coloured darkest black, so ill did her beseem
[Verse]
G#m F# E B C#m E
And then up spoke King Arthur and angrier he grew
G#m F# E B C#m F#
"By all the knights of England, I think thou be not true"
B G#m A E B
And she threw down the mantle for all the court to see
G#m A E B
And blushed as red as roses and to her room did flee
[Instrumental]
G#m F# E B E F#
[Verse]
B G#m A E B
Sir Kay called forth his lady and bade her to come near
G#m A E B
And said, "If thou be guilty, I pray thee hold thee there"
G#m F# E B C#m E
And so forth came his lady, so bold she did appear
G#m F# E B C#m F#
And likewise was embarrassed and cried for all to hear
B G#m A E B
And likewise all the gentle knights who thought their wives most true
G#m A E B
Commanded them to try it on and bitterly did rue
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
G#m A E B
And then there came a faded knight, Sir Craddocke was his name
G#m A E B
And all the knights of Arthur's court, of him had sport and game
G#m F# E B C#m E
"Win this mantle, Lady, and it shall all be thine
G#m F# E B C#m F#
And if thou ever did amiss, the shame is there for mine"
B G#m A E B
His lady took the mantle and cast it her about
G#m A E B
"Bow down to me good mantle and shame me not for nowt
G#m F# E B C#m E
For once I did part one amiss, I'll tell thee certainly
G#m F# E B C#m F#
For once I lay in Craddocke's bed, before he married me"
[Verse]
B G#m A E B
When she had made confession and all her sins are told
G#m A E B
The mantle stood about her, in bright array she stood
G#m F# E B C#m E
So seemly of colour and glittering of gold
G#m F# E B C#m F#
Then all the knights of Arthur's court, her beauty did behold
B G#m A E B
So Craddocke stood in glory, his lady proven true
G#m A E B
And all the knights of Arthur's court, have surely got their due
