Verse 1
A (D major) (G major) wager (C major) , a (D major) wager (G major) (D major) ,
five (G major) hundred pound and ten
That (C major) you'll not (D major) go to the Broomfield
till (A minor) An na may return again (C major)
(D major) And (G major) oh, she (C major) cried and (D major) oh, (G major) she sighed
(D major) and oh, (G major) she made her moan
Saying, (C major) shall I (D major) go to the Broomfield (A minor) till
or shall I stay at home
(D major) For if I (C major) go on to (G major) the (D major) Brumfield Hill
And my (G major) maid (D major) enhead is (G major) gone
But (C major) if I (D major) chance to stay at (C major) home
(A minor) Why then I am forsworn
(D major) There's (A minor) thirteen months all in one (D major) year
As (G major) I've heard people (D major) say (G major)
But the (D major) finest month in all the year
Is the very merry month of (G major) May (D major) (G major)
Up there (C major) spoke an (D major) old (G major) witch,
(D major) one as she sat (G major) all (D major) alone
(G major) Saying, (C major) shall (D major) go to the
Broom (G major) field (A minor) hill,
and I'll you shall return
(D major) For (G major) when you (C major) get to the
(D major) Broomfield hill,
you will find (G major) your (D major) lover's (G major) sleep
With his (C major) hawk in his (D major) hand
and his silk satin (A minor) gown
and those ribbons all down to his (D major) feet
He'd (G major) take the (C major) blossom
from (G major) off of the (D major) brun
The blossom (G major) that smelled so (D major) sweet
(G major) And he'd (C major) lay it (D major) down all under his head
(A minor) And all of the soles of his (C major) feet
(D major) There's (A minor) thirteen months all in one (D major) year
As (G major) I've heard people (D major) say
(G major) But the (C major) finest (G major) month (D major) in all the year
Is the very merry month of May (A major) (G major)
But when she got (C major) to the (D major) broom -filled hill
She found (G major) her lover's sleep
With his (C major) hawk in his (D major) hand
and his silk satin (G major) gown
And the (A minor) brim was all down to his (D major) feet
She's (G major) taken the (C major) blossom
from (D major) off of the broom
And the blossom (G major) that smelled so sweet
And the (C major) more she lay (D major) it round
And about the (A minor) sounder he did (D major) sleep,
She (G major) stapled the (C major) rim from (G major) off (D major) of her finger,
And (G major) laid it at his (D major) right (G major) hand,
For to (C major) let him (D major) know when he awoke,
(A minor) That she had been there
at his com (C major) mand.
(D major) There's (A minor) thirteen months all in one (D major) year,
As (G major) I've heard (D major) people say,
(G major) But the (C major) finest month (D major) in all the year
is the very merry month of May (G major)
Oh, where were (C major) you, my good (G major) Greystein,
(D major) that I (G major) have loved so dear?
Why (C major) did you (D major) not stand and waken me
(A minor) when there was a maiden here?
(D major) Oh, (G major) I stand (C major) with my (D major) feet, master,
and all (G major) my (D major) bells I (G major) rang,
But there (C major) was (D major) nothing could (G major) waken you (D major)
(A minor) till she had (D major) been and gone.
Oh, (G major) haste, (C major) haste, my (D major) good Gracetee,
for to come (G major) where she may be,
Or (C major) all (A minor) the (D major) birds in the broom -field (A minor) hill
will eat their fill (D major) of thee.
Oh, you (G major) need not (C major) break
your (D major) good grace deep
by racing (G major) to (D major) her (G major) home
No (C major) bird flies (D major) faster through the (A minor) wood
than she flew through the (D major) broom
There's (A minor) thirteen months
all in one (D major) year,
as I've (G major) heard people (D major) say (G major)
But the finest (D major) month in all the (G major) (D major) year
Is the very merry month of May (G major)
