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