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

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

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