[Intro 1]
[G][Em][D][G][Em][C][D]

[Verse 1]
[G]How pleasant is the [C]wind tonight,
[D]I f[G]eel some drops of rai[D]n[G][D]
I [G]never [D]had [G]but one true [C]love,
[G]In greenwood he lies slain
I'll do so much for my true love,
[C]As [G]any young girl may[D][G][D][G]
[C]I'll sit and mou[D]rn all[Em] on [G]your gra[D]ve,
[C]For twelve mon[D]ths and a day
[G]

[Verse 2]
[C][D]
The [G]twelve months and [C]a day being [D]up,
The [G]ghost began [D]to speak
[Em]Why sit you [D]here an[G]d mourn for
[C]me? And [G]you will not let me [D]sleep
What [G]do you want of me, [D]sweet[Em]heart? Oh,
what is [G]it you [D]crave?[C]
Just one [D]kiss [Em]of your lily [D]white lips,
[C]And that is [D]all I cra[Em]ve[C]

[Verse 3]
[G]Oh, don't you [D]see [G]the fire,
[C]sweethea[D]rt? The[G] fire that burns so blu[D]e
Where [Em]my poor so[G]ul torme[C]nted is,
[G]All for the love of [D]you
[G]An d if you weren't my [D]own sweet[Em]heart,
As I know you [G]well to [D]be[C]
I'd rend you [D]up in [Em]pieces [D]small,
As [C]leaves [D]upon [Em]a tree[D]
Mourn [G]not for me, my [D]own true [Em]love,
Mourn not for [G]me I [D]crave
[C]I must lea[D]ve you an [Em]d all the worl[D]d
An[C]d turn [D]in to [Em]my gr[D]ave
An[C]d turn i[D]nto my grave
