C#m E
Lady margaret, lady margaret
B C#m
Was sowing at the seam
E B F#
She's all dressed in black
E C#m G#m
And a thought came in her head to roam in the woods
F# C#m E
To pull flowers to flower her hat, my boys
G#m F# G#m
To pull flowers to flower her hat
C#m E B C#m
So she hoisted up her petticoats a bit above the knee
E B F#
And so nimbly she ran over the ground
E C#m G#m
And when she came to the merrygreen woods
F# C#m E G#m
She pulled those branches down, my boys
F# G#m
She pulled those branches down
C#m E B C#m
Suddenly she spied a fine young man
E B F#
He's standing by a tree
E C#m G#m
He says how dare you pull those branches down?
F# C#m E G#m
Without the leave of me, my dear
F# G#m
Without the leave of me
C#m E B C#m
Well she says this little wood it is my very own
E B F#
My father gave it to me
E C#m G#m F# C#m E G#m
I can pull these branches down without the leave of thee, young man
F# G#m
Oh without the leave of thee
C#m E B C#m
And he took her by the milk-white hand
E B F#
And by the grass-green sleeve
E C#m G#m
He pulled her down at the foot of the bush
F# C#m E G#m
He never once asked her leave, my boys
F# G#m
Oh he never once asked her leave
C#m E B C#m
And when it was done she twisted about
E B E F#
To ask her true love's name
E C#m
But she nothing saw
G#m
She nothing heard
F# C#m E G#m
And all the woods grew dim
F# G#m
And all the woods grew dim
E F# E F# G#m
C#m E B C#m
There's four and twenty ladies all in the land
E B F#
And they're all playing a chess
E G#m
Except it was the lady margaret
F# C#m E G#m
And she's green as any glass, my boys
F# G#m
Oh she's green as any glass
F# C#m E B C#m
And these four-and-twenty ladies all in the land
E B F#
Grow as red any rose
E F# C#m G#m F# C#m E
Except the lady margaret she's pale and wan, my boys
G#m F# G#m
Oh pale and wan she goes
C#m E B C#m
Up then spoke the little serving girl
E B F#
She lifted her hand and smiled
E F# C#m G#m
She said i think my lady's loved too long
F# C#m E G#m
And now she goes with child, my dears
F# G#m
Oh and now she goes with child
C#m E B C#m
Up then spoke the second serving girl
E B F#
Oh ever and alas says she
E F# C#m G#m
But i think i know a herb in the merry green wood
F# C#m E G#m
That'll twine thy baby from thee
F# G#m
It'll rip off thy babe from thee
C#m E B C#m
So lady margaret she got herself a comb
E B F#
She made haste to comb her hair
E C#m G#m
And then she's away to the merry green woods
F# C#m E G#m
As fast as she can tear, my boys
F# G#m
As fast as she can tear
C#m E B C#m
And she hadn't pulled in the merry green woods
E B F#
F# herb that barely won
E C#m G#m
When by her stands the young tamlin
F# C#m E G#m
He says margaret leave it alone
F# G#m
Oh margaret leave it alone
C#m E B C#m
Why do you pull that bitter little herb
E B F#
That herb that grows so grey
E C#m G#m F# C#m E G#m
For to destroy that fine young baby that we got in our play, my dear
F# G#m
Oh that we got in our play
C#m E B C#m
Well come tell me now young tamling says she
E B F#
If an earthly man you be
E C#m G#m
I tell you no lies, says young tamlin
F# C#m E G#m
I was christened as good as thee
F# G#m
I was christened as good as thee
C#m E B C#m
But as i rode a-hunting on a bitter bitter night
E B F#
It was from my horse i fell
E C#m G#m
And the queen of elvin she caught me
F# C#m E G#m
Into yonder green hill to dwell
F# G#m
Oh into yonder green hill to dwell
C#m E B C#m
But tonight is halloween lady
E B F#
The elvin caught will ride
E C#m G#m
And if you would your true love win
F# C#m E G#m
By the millbridge you must hide, my dears
F# G#m
By the millbridge you must hide
C#m E
And first will run the black horse
B E
Then will the brown
E B F#
And then will run the white
E C#m G#m
You hold him fast, you fear him not
F# C#m E G#m
For he's the father of your child, my love
F# G#m
He's the father of your child
C#m E B C#m
They'll turn me on in your arms lady
E B F#
Into many a beasts so wild
E C#m G#m
But you hold them fast, you fear no ill
F# C#m E G#m
It's the father of your child, my love
F# G#m
It's the father of your child
E C#m G#m x2
C#m E B C#m
So lady margaret, she gets herself a comb
E B F#
She made haste to comb her hair
E C#m G#m
Then she's away to the old millbrdige
F# C#m E G#m
As fast as she could tear, my boys
F# G#m
As fast as she could tear
C#m E B C#m E B F#
And about the dead hour of the night she heard the bridles ring
E C#m G#m F# C#m E G#m
Oh my boys, she had her heart more than any earthly thing it did
F# G#m
More than any earthly thing
C#m E B
And first run the black horse
C#m
Then the brown
E B F#
And then raced by the white
E C#m G#m
Well she held it fast, she feared it not
F# C#m E G#m
For it's the father of her child
F# G#m
It's the father of her child
C#m E B C#m E
The thunderoll across the sky
B F# E
The stars blazed bright as day
C#m G#m F#
The queen of elvin gave a thrilling cry
C#m E G#m
Tamlin's away brave boys
F# G#m
Brave tamlin's away
C#m E B C#m
The very first thing they turned him into
E B F# E
Is a lion that runs so wild
C#m G#m
But she held him fast, she feared him not
F# C#m E G#m
He's the father of her child, my boys
F# G#m
He's the father of her child
C#m E B C#m
And the very next thing they turned him into
E B F#
It was a loathsome snake
E C#m G#m
He says hold me fast, fear me not
F# C#m E G#m
For i'm one of god's own make, my love
F# G#m
Oh i'm one of god's own make
C#m E B C#m E
And again they changed him all in her arms
B F#
To a red-hot bar of iron
E C#m G#m
But she held it fast, she feared it not
F# C#m E G#m
It did to her no harm
F# G#m
It did to her no harm
C#m E B C#m
And the very last thing they changed him into
E B F#
Was like any naked man
E C#m G#m
She flung her mantle over him
F# C#m E G#m
She cried my love i've won i've won
F# G#m
She cried my love i've won
C#m E B C#m E
But the queen of elvin she called for a bush
B F#
She's red as any blood
E C#m G#m
I should have torn out your eyes, tamlin
F# C#m E G#m
And put in two eyes of wood
F# G#m
And put in two eyes of wood
