Verse 1
(E major) (E minor) (Asus2) (E minor) (Asus2) Abide,
(E minor)
abide, true love, she said.
Beg and stay all (B minor) night.
You shall (E minor) have your pleasure in me room,
With a (Asus2) coal and a candlelight. (D major)
Light with a (Asus2) coal and a candlelight. (Esus4)
(D major) Well, (Esus4) I (E major) won't abide, (E minor) you false lady.
I will not stay all night.
(B minor) For (E minor) I have a far better love, you see,
when (Asus2) I go (A major) home than (D major) you, you,
when (Asus2) I go home than you. (Esus4)
Well, (E major) she's lent (E minor) or a saddle high
to kiss her lips so (B minor) sweet,
But with (E minor) a broadsword in his hand,
she's (Asus2) wounded him full (D major) deep, deep,
she's (Asus2) wounded him full deep.
(B major) Why (E major) woundest me, you (E minor) false lady?
Why woundest me so (B major) sore?
There's (E minor) not a doc (Esus4) tor in (D major) all Scotland
(E major) can (Asus2) heal my mortal wound, (D major) wound,
can (Asus2) heal my mortal wound. (E minor) (B minor) (E minor) (D major) (A major)
(D major) (Asus2)
(Esus4) She (E major) awoke late in (E minor) the morning,
just at the break of (B minor) day,
Saying (E minor) there's a dead man in my bar,
I (Asus2) wish he was away, (E minor) away,
I (Asus2) wish he was away.
So they (E major) took him by the (E minor) lily -white hand,
the others by the feet
They (B major) threw (E minor) him (B minor) into a (G major) very deep well,
full (Asus2) fifty fathoms deep, deep,
full (Esus4) fifty fathoms deep
Sleep (E major) there, sleep there,
you false (E minor) young love,
sleep there, sleep all alone
(B minor) And (E minor) let the one that you
love best
think you're (Asus2) longer coming home, (E minor)
(Esus4) home,
think you're (Asus2) longer coming home
(E major) (Esus4) (E minor) (Esus4) (Asus2) (D major)
(B minor) And then (E minor) up spoke a pretty (B minor) little bird,
sit (E minor) ting in the tree
(B minor) There's (E minor) not a man (E major) in all (D major) Scotland
(Asus2) Beloved as well as thee,
thee he loved as well as thee (Esus4)
Come (E minor) down,
come down me (B minor) pretty little bird,
(E minor) sit upon my (B minor) knee
For (Asus2) I have (Esus4) a golden cage at (Asus2) home
I will bestow to thee,
thee I will bestow to thee. (Esus4)
Well, I (E minor) won't come down, you false lady,
I won't sit on your (B minor) knee.
For (E minor) you have slain your
(B minor) own true (E major) love,
I'm sure (Asus2) you will slay (D major) me, me,
I'm (Asus2) sure you will slay me.
Well, (E minor) if I had your bow to bend,
my arrow and my (B minor) string,
I'd (E minor) shoot you through the very heart
and (Asus2) no more hear
you (E minor) sing, (D major) sing, and (Asus2) no more hear
Well if (Esus4) you had (E minor) your bow to bend,
your arrow and your spring,
(B minor) I'd (E minor) take to me wings and away I'd fly, you'd (Asus2) not see me again, (D major) again, (Asus2)
you'd not see me again. (A minor) (E minor) (Asus2) (E minor) (C major) (E minor)
(Asus2) (E minor) (D major) (A major) (Asus2) (D major) (A major)
(F sharp minor)
