Cm D#
Lady margaret, lady margaret
A# Cm
Was sowing at the seam
D# A# F
She's all dressed in black
D# Cm Gm
And a thought came in her head to roam in the woods
F Cm D#
To pull flowers to flower her hat, my boys
Gm F Gm
To pull flowers to flower her hat
Cm D# A# Cm
So she hoisted up her petticoats a bit above the knee
D# A# F
And so nimbly she ran over the ground
D# Cm Gm
And when she came to the merrygreen woods
F Cm D# Gm
She pulled those branches down, my boys
F Gm
She pulled those branches down
Cm D# A# Cm
Suddenly she spied a fine young man
D# A# F
He's standing by a tree
D# Cm Gm
He says how dare you pull those branches down?
F Cm D# Gm
Without the leave of me, my dear
F Gm
Without the leave of me
Cm D# A# Cm
Well she says this little wood it is my very own
D# A# F
My father gave it to me
D# Cm Gm F Cm D# Gm
I can pull these branches down without the leave of thee, young man
F Gm
Oh without the leave of thee
Cm D# A# Cm
And he took her by the milk-white hand
D# A# F
And by the grass-green sleeve
D# Cm Gm
He pulled her down at the foot of the bush
F Cm D# Gm
He never once asked her leave, my boys
F Gm
Oh he never once asked her leave
Cm D# A# Cm
And when it was done she twisted about
D# A# D# F
To ask her true love's name
D# Cm
But she nothing saw
Gm
She nothing heard
F Cm D# Gm
And all the woods grew dim
F Gm
And all the woods grew dim
D# F D# F Gm
Cm D# A# Cm
There's four and twenty ladies all in the land
D# A# F
And they're all playing a chess
D# Gm
Except it was the lady margaret
F Cm D# Gm
And she's green as any glass, my boys
F Gm
Oh she's green as any glass
F Cm D# A# Cm
And these four-and-twenty ladies all in the land
D# A# F
Grow as red any rose
D# F Cm Gm F Cm D#
Except the lady margaret she's pale and wan, my boys
Gm F Gm
Oh pale and wan she goes
Cm D# A# Cm
Up then spoke the little serving girl
D# A# F
She lifted her hand and smiled
D# F Cm Gm
She said i think my lady's loved too long
F Cm D# Gm
And now she goes with child, my dears
F Gm
Oh and now she goes with child
Cm D# A# Cm
Up then spoke the second serving girl
D# A# F
Oh ever and alas says she
D# F Cm Gm
But i think i know a herb in the merry green wood
F Cm D# Gm
That'll twine thy baby from thee
F Gm
It'll rip off thy babe from thee
Cm D# A# Cm
So lady margaret she got herself a comb
D# A# F
She made haste to comb her hair
D# Cm Gm
And then she's away to the merry green woods
F Cm D# Gm
As fast as she can tear, my boys
F Gm
As fast as she can tear
Cm D# A# Cm
And she hadn't pulled in the merry green woods
D# A# F
F herb that barely won
D# Cm Gm
When by her stands the young tamlin
F Cm D# Gm
He says margaret leave it alone
F Gm
Oh margaret leave it alone
Cm D# A# Cm
Why do you pull that bitter little herb
D# A# F
That herb that grows so grey
D# Cm Gm F Cm D# Gm
For to destroy that fine young baby that we got in our play, my dear
F Gm
Oh that we got in our play
Cm D# A# Cm
Well come tell me now young tamling says she
D# A# F
If an earthly man you be
D# Cm Gm
I tell you no lies, says young tamlin
F Cm D# Gm
I was christened as good as thee
F Gm
I was christened as good as thee
Cm D# A# Cm
But as i rode a-hunting on a bitter bitter night
D# A# F
It was from my horse i fell
D# Cm Gm
And the queen of elvin she caught me
F Cm D# Gm
Into yonder green hill to dwell
F Gm
Oh into yonder green hill to dwell
Cm D# A# Cm
But tonight is halloween lady
D# A# F
The elvin caught will ride
D# Cm Gm
And if you would your true love win
F Cm D# Gm
By the millbridge you must hide, my dears
F Gm
By the millbridge you must hide
Cm D#
And first will run the black horse
A# D#
Then will the brown
D# A# F
And then will run the white
D# Cm Gm
You hold him fast, you fear him not
F Cm D# Gm
For he's the father of your child, my love
F Gm
He's the father of your child
Cm D# A# Cm
They'll turn me on in your arms lady
D# A# F
Into many a beasts so wild
D# Cm Gm
But you hold them fast, you fear no ill
F Cm D# Gm
It's the father of your child, my love
F Gm

D# Cm Gm x2
Cm D# A# Cm
So lady margaret, she gets herself a comb
D# A# F
She made haste to comb her hair
D# Cm Gm
Then she's away to the old millbrdige
F Cm D# Gm
As fast as she could tear, my boys
F Gm
As fast as she could tear
Cm D# A# Cm D# A# F
And about the dead hour of the night she heard the bridles ring
D# Cm Gm F Cm D# Gm
Oh my boys, she had her heart more than any earthly thing it did
F Gm
More than any earthly thing
Cm D# A#
And first run the black horse
Cm
Then the brown
D# A# F
And then raced by the white
D# Cm Gm
Well she held it fast, she feared it not
F Cm D# Gm
For it's the father of her child
F Gm
It's the father of her child
Cm D# A# Cm D#
The thunderoll across the sky
A# F D#
The stars blazed bright as day
Cm Gm F
The queen of elvin gave a thrilling cry
Cm D# Gm
Tamlin's away brave boys
F Gm
Brave tamlin's away
Cm D# A# Cm
The very first thing they turned him into
D# A# F D#
Is a lion that runs so wild
Cm Gm
But she held him fast, she feared him not
F Cm D# Gm
He's the father of her child, my boys
F Gm
He's the father of her child
Cm D# A# Cm
And the very next thing they turned him into
D# A# F
It was a loathsome snake
D# Cm Gm
He says hold me fast, fear me not
F Cm D# Gm
For i'm one of god's own make, my love
F Gm
Oh i'm one of god's own make
Cm D# A# Cm D#
And again they changed him all in her arms
A# F
To a red-hot bar of iron
D# Cm Gm
But she held it fast, she feared it not
F Cm D# Gm
It did to her no harm
F Gm
It did to her no harm
Cm D# A# Cm
And the very last thing they changed him into
D# A# F
Was like any naked man
D# Cm Gm
She flung her mantle over him
F Cm D# Gm
She cried my love i've won i've won
F Gm
She cried my love i've won
Cm D# A# Cm D#
But the queen of elvin she called for a bush
A# F
She's red as any blood
D# Cm Gm
I should have torn out your eyes, tamlin
F Cm D# Gm
And put in two eyes of wood
F Gm
And put in two eyes of wood
