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

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

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